Pure water flows through a horizontal artery. At the wide end its speed is 40cm/s and the difference in pressure between the two ends is 1.0x102 Pa. What is the speed of the water at the narrow end in cm/s? Take the density of the blood to be that of pure water.
Water supplied to a house by a water main has a pressure of 3.00 × 105 N/m2 early on a summer day when neighborhood use is low. This pressure produces a flow of 20.0 L/min through a garden hose. Later in the day, pressure at the exit of the water main and entrance to the house drops, and a flow of only 8.00 L/min is obtained through the same hose. (a) What pressure is now being supplied to the house, assuming resistance is constant? (b) By what factor did the flow rate in the water main increase in order to cause this decrease in delivered pressure? The pressure at the entrance of the water main is 5.00 × 105 N/m2 , and the original flow rate was 200 L/min. (c) How many more users are there, assuming each would consume 20.0 L/min in the morning?

A sealed tank containing seawater to a height of 12.0 m also contains air above the water at a gauge pressure of 3.05 atm. Water flows out from the bottom through a small hole. Calculate the speed with which the water comes out of the tank. Express your answer in meters per second.
Water (density = 1 x 10³ kg/m³) flows at 15.6 m/s through a pipe with radius 0.04 m. This same pipe goes up to the second floor of the building, 7.1 m higher, and the pressure remains unchanged. What is the speed of the water flow on the second floor?
A tank contains a pool of mercury 0.30 m deep, covered with a layer of water that is 1.2 m deep. The density of water is 1.0 x 103 kg/m3, and that of mercury is 13.6 x 103 kg/m3. Find the pressure exerted by the double layer of liquids at the bottom of the tank. Ignore the pressure of the atmosphere.
In an industrial cooling process, water is circulated through a system. If water is pumped with a speed of 5.20 m/s under a pressure of 5.00*10^5 Pa from the first floor through a 3.80-cm diameter pipe, what will be the pressure on the next floor 3.50 m above in a pipe with a diameter of 3.00 cm?
Intravenous infusions are usually made with the help of the gravitational force. Assuming that the density of the fluid being administered is 1.00 g/ml, at what height should the IV bag be placed above the entry point so that the fluid just enters the vein if the blood pressure in the vein is 18 mm Hg above atmospheric pressure? Assume that the IV bag is collapsible.
A pumping station uses a Venturi tube to measure the flow rate of gasoline. The density of the gasoline is p = 7.40 x 102 kg/m3, the inlet and outlet tubes, respectively, have a radius of 2.80 cm and 1.40 cm, and the difference in input and output pressure is P, - P, = 1.20 kPa.
