plzzzz help meee right nowww plzzz what will be the pressure gradient (kpa/m) at L=30 cm through the nozzle? At L=0, the liquid flows inside the nozzle has a specific gravity S=7.5, at L=0, the velocity is 2 m/s while at L=70 cm, the velocity is 6 m/s. Assume steady and inviscid flow. The velocity varies linearly with distance through the nozzle
