A pitot tube is inserted in a pipe of 30 cm diameter. The static pressure of the tube is 10 cm of mercury, vacuum. The stagnation pressure at the centre of the pipe recorded by the pitot tube is 1.0 N/cm². Calculate the rate of flow of water through the pipe, if the mean velocity of flow is 0.85 times the central velocity. Assume coefficient of the tube to be 0.98.

The initial pressures at A and B are the same at 109 kPa. If the pressure at the liquid at A (SG1 = 2.65) is increased to 134 kPa while keeping the pressure at B constant, determine the new position (Ah, in mm.) of the mercury meniscus inside the tube as shown. Assume no change in the liquid densities. The connecting tube is a 1-cm in diameter, Y1 = 0.69 cm., and the inclination of the tube is 16° with respect to the horizontal. Assume unit weight of air to be negligible. Round off to three decimal places. SG B Air Yı Δh Ah Mercury
