Problem on magnitude of force

A horizontal pipe of dimension 540 mm diameter carrying 0.6 m3/s splits into two horizontal pipes of 300 mm diameter with 60% of the flow and another of 150 mm diameter with 40% of the flow. Find out the magnitude and direction of the force on the anchor holding the pipe junction when the pressure gauge reads 70 kPa. Suppose there is no energy losses.
