A liquid is flowing through a horizontal pipe whose radius is 0.0301 m. The pipe bends straight upward through a height of 8.80 m and joins another horizontal pipe whose radius is 0.0726 m. What volume flow rate will keep the pressures in the two horizontal pipes the same? Number Units 202
A water barometer is used to measure air pressure in a duct where the air is being forced to ventilate a building. One end of the barometer is open to the atmosphere, and the other end is open to the inside of the ductwork. When the tube is bent in the shape of a U, the technician notes that the water level on the side toward the duct is lower than the side toward the atmosphere by 13.4 cm. What is the pressure difference in N/m2? The density of water is 1 gm/cm3 or 1000 kg/m3. Use 9.8 m/s2 for the acceleration of gravity.
Water at a pressure of 3.85 x 105 N/m2 at street level flows into an office building at a speed of 0.68 m/s through a pipe with a radius of 2.5 cm. The pipe tapers down to 1.4 cm in diameter by the top floor, 18 m above the street. The flow speed is 2.2 m/s at the top floor. Calculate the pressure in the pipe on the top floor.
