Question 4. A horizontal pipe which has a cross-section area of 10 cm? is connected to another horizontal pipe with cross-section area of student Assignment Part B task 8120 21 22 UEENEEE081A (EEET7019C) Assess1-Assignment Part B V1 2019 STUDENT 50 cm². Water flows into the small pipe at 6 m/s under a pressure of 200 kPa. Find (a) the speed of the water in the large pipe, m/s (b) the pressure there, and kPa (c) the rate of flow LUs)
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.
