You have probably noticed that when you turn on the garden hose it will whip about uncontrollably if it is not restrained. This is because of the unbalanced forces developed by the change of momentum in the tube. If a1/2 in. ID hose carries water at a rate of 50 gpm, and the open end of the hose is bent at an angle of 308 to the rest of the hose, calculate the components of the force (magnitude and direction) exerted by the water on the bend in the hose. Assume that the loss coefficient in the hose is 0.25.
