Question

A horizontal bend of constant cross-sectional area (A) pipe is shown below (you are looking down on the bend from above). Water flows through the bend at steady flow conditions and the pressure is the same at points 1 and 2 (P₁ = P₂= P). The mass flow rate (m_dot) and velocity (V) in the pipe are also constant.
