Pitot Pipe By connecting a mercury pressure gauge to a vertical pipeline through which water is transmitted, speed measurement is performed with a pitot tube. Since the deviation from the pressure gauge column is 15 cm, calculate the speed of the water in the pipe. (Pmercury=13560 kg/m3, Pwater=1000 kg/m3) (Answer is V2=6.08 m/s)
