Answer:

Hello your question is incomplete attached below is the missing diagram and the sketch of the diagram

answer :

Horizontal force = 59.9 Ib

Vertical force = 262 Ib

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

flow rate = 0.6 ft^3/s

total weight = 250 Ib

B) To determine the vertical components of force necessary to hold the elbow in place

W = 250 Ib , Q = 0.6 ft^3/s, (Vb)y = 12.24sin60 , g = 32.2ft/s^2, γ = 62.4 Ib/ft^3
