An underground pipe carries water of density 1000 kg/m³ to a fountain at ground level, as shown above. At point A, 0.830 m below ground level, the pipe has a cross-sectional area of 2.50 x 104 m². At ground level, the pipe has a cross- sectional area of 1.35 x 104 m². The water leaves the pipe at point B at a speed of 11.3 m/s. (a) Calculate the speed of the water in the pipe at point A. A₁V₁=A₂ V₂ 6.25e-8 V₁ = 2,059 e-7 P=Pgh v₁ = 3.29508 m/s) (2.5x10-432 v₁ = # (1.35x10-4)² (11.3) (b) Calculate the absolute water pressure in the pipe at point A. P=8134 Ра 19H de container depends = 1000 (9.8) (0.83) (c) Calculate the maximum height above the ground that the water reaches upon leaving the pipe vertically at ground level, assuming air resistance is negligible.
Fluid Pressure
The term fluid pressure is coined as, the measurement of the force per unit area of a given surface of a closed container. It is a branch of physics that helps to study the properties of fluid under various conditions of force.
Gauge Pressure
Pressure is the physical force acting per unit area on a body; the applied force is perpendicular to the surface of the object per unit area. The air around us at sea level exerts a pressure (atmospheric pressure) of about 14.7 psi but this doesn’t seem to bother anyone as the bodily fluids are constantly pushing outwards with the same force but if one swims down into the ocean a few feet below the surface one can notice the difference, there is increased pressure on the eardrum, this is due to an increase in hydrostatic pressure.
