In a factory, steam flows through metal pipes from one place to another. When straight pipes are used, the pipes will be damaged as shown below.
When pipes with a bend as shown below are used, the pipes will not be easily damaged.
How does the bend prevent the pipe from being damaged?
It allows the hot pipe to expand.
It allows the steam to cool down faster.
It prevents the hot pipe from melting.
It prevents the steam from flowing too fast.
