 Water with density of 1000 kg/m^3 flows through a horizontal pipe (in the x-z plane) bend as shown. The weight of the pipe is 350 N and the pipe cross-sectional area is constant and equals to 0.35 m^2. The magnitude of the inlet velocity is 4 m/s. The absolute pressures at the entrance and exit of the bend are 210 kPa and 110 kPa, respectively. Assuming the atmospheric pressure is 100 kPa and neglecting the weight and viscosity of the water , find the following:
