Crude oil ( \(\mathrm{SG}=0.95)\) from a tanker dock flows through a pipe of \(0.25 \mathrm{~m}\) diameter in the configuration shown. The flow rate is \(0.58 \mathrm{~m}^{3} / \mathrm{s}\), and the gage pressures are shown in the diagram. Determine the force and torque that are exerted by the pipe assembly on its supports.
