Question

Transcribed Image Text:oblems:
1. A horizontal pipe, 1 ft. in diameter, tapers gradually to 8 in. in diameter. If the flow is 500 cu ft. of
water per minute, what is the difference between the pressures at the two sections?
Ans. PA - PB = 443.63lb per sq ft
2. Water flows through a horizontal pipe at a velocity of 50 ft. per sec. Owing to the pipe gradually
expanding to a larger size, the velocity decreases to 35 ft. per sec. What is the difference between the
pressures at two points, one in each size of pipe?
Ans. Pg - PA = 1,236. 75 lb
per sq ft
