Water flows through two sections of the vertical pipe shown in Fig. P8.95. The bellows connection cannot support any force in the vertical direction. The 0.4-ft-diameter pipe weights \(0.2 \mathrm{lb} / \mathrm{ft}\), and the friction factor is assumed to be 0.02. At what velocity will the force, \(F\), required to hold the pipe be zero?
