Water flows in this bend at a rate of 5 m³/s, and the pressure at the inlet is 650 kPa. If the head loss in the bend is 10 m, what will the pressure be at the outlet of the bend? Also estimate the force of the anchor block on the bend in the x direction required to hold the bend in place. Assume α = 1.0 at all locations.
