A 0.4 ×0.3m, 90° vertical reducing bend carries 0.5/m3/s oil of specificgravity 0.85 with a pressure of 118 KN/m2 at inlet to the bend. The volume of bend is 0.1m3. Find the magnitude and direction of the force on the bend. Neglect the frictional losses and assume both inlet and outlet sections to be at smae horiziontal level. Also assume that water enters the bend at 45° to the horiziontal.
