1. (30 Points) A reducing elbow in a horizontal pipe of \( 15-\mathrm{cm} \) diameter is used to deflect water flow \( 45^{\circ} \) before discharging to the atmosphere from a 6-cm-diameter exit. The elevation difference between the reducer inletand exit is \( 40 \mathrm{~cm} \), the mass flow rate into the elbow is \( 30 \mathrm{~kg} / \mathrm{s} \), and the mass of the reducer plus water inside is \( 50 \mathrm{~kg} \) : Determine the anchor force (as a resultant with orientation) needed to hold the reducing elbow in place.
