A soft drink (mostly water) flows in a pipe at Meco Brewery with a mass flow rate that would fill 220 0.355-L cans per minute. At point 2 in the pipe, the gauge pressure is 152kPa and the cross-sectional area is 8.20cm2. At point 1, 1.35 m above point 2, the cross-sectional area is 2.20 cm2. Find the mass flow rate, volume flow rate, the flow speeds at point 1 and 2 and the gauge pressure at point 1.
