Rino wants a high speed of water when it flows out from his pipe. The rate of water flows from his pipe now is about 10 m/s. (i) If he wants the rate of water flows two times from his rate of water flows now, determine the diameter of the other end of the pipe should he changes. Given the radius of his pipe is 2.0 m. (ii) With the fast rate of water flows that he has now, detemine the volume of water that he can have in 10 minutes.
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.
