Water flows through a horizontal bend and discharges into the atmosphere as shown in Fig. P5.38. When the pressure gage reads 10 psi, the resultant \(x\)-direction anchoring force, \(F_{A x}\), in the horizontal plane required to hold the bend in place is shown on the figure. Determine the flowrate through the bend and the \(y\)-direction anchoring force, \(F_{A y}\), required to hold the bend in place. The flow is not frictionless.
Figure P5.38

Q=? 10 psi Water Bend Area = 0.2 ft Area = 0.1 ft 45 FA = ? FAX = 1440 lb
