A fire hydrant delivers water of density $\rho $ at a volume rate $L$. The water travels vertically upward through the hydrant and then does $90^o$ turn to emerge horizontally at speed $V$. The pipe and nozzle have uniform cross-section throughout. The force exerted by the water on the corner of the hydrant is
