Calculate the magnitude and direction of the force required to hold the flow device in Fig. $3\mathrm{.}2$

stationary for the following situations. The fluid is water at $20$oC$,$ and the device and its

content weighs approximately $600$ kg$.$ Assume that flow is steady, uniform and frictionless,

and that pressures at all outlets are atmospheric.

a$.$ Gravity is perpendicular to the x$-$y plane $($of the paper$)$;

b$.$ Gravity acts in the negative y$-$direction.
