Water (density = \( 10^3 \, \text{kg/m}^3 \)) enters steadily into a horizontal pipe bend, which is part of a larger piping system, as shown in the figure. The volumetric flow rate of water is 0.1 m\(^3\)/s. The gage pressure at the inlet is 500 kPa, while the exit is open to atmosphere. The \( x \)-component of the force on the support is \( F_x \). The absolute value of \( F_x \) (in kN, up to one decimal place) is \(\underline{\hspace{1cm}}\).
