The diverter section of pipe between A and B is designed to allow the parallel pipes to clear an obstruction. The flange of the diverter is secured at C by a heavy bolt. The pipe carries fresh water at the steady rate of 5000 gal/min under a static pressure of 130 lb/in.2 entering the diverter. The inside diameter of the pipe at A and at B is 4 in. The tensions in the pipe at A and B are balanced by the pressure in the pipe acting over the flow area. There is no shear or bending of the pipes at A or B. Calculate the moment M supported by the bolt at C. (Recall that 1 gallon contains 231 in.3)
