1) 5.46 5.46 Figure P5.46 shows a lateral pipe fitting. This particular fitting has a mainline diameter of 4.0 in. The diameter of the lateral is 3.0 in, and the lateral angle is 45°: 50 °F water is flow-ing in the lateral. Measurements show that the pressure at point 1 is 34.0 psig, the pressure at point 2 is 35.0 psig, the pressure at point 3 is 33.5 psig, and the flow rate at point 2 is 1.0 ft/s.Determine the horizontal and vertical force components (F, and) required to hold the lateral fitting stationary. Neglect gravity.2.-63 ft/s
