The main opening of a pipe or venturi meter is 5.00 cm in radius while the constriction is 2.0 cm in radius. If 5.00 L/s (dV/dt) of water flows through it, what is the pressure difference in the pipe? (A = πr2) A) p1-p2 = 8 650 Pa B) p1-p2 = 5 680 Pa C) p1-p2 = 7 680 Pa D) p1-p2 = 1 650 Pa A swimming pool is filled with water, it has a depth of 3.00 m. What is the pressure at the bottom of the pool if the water is freshwater? A) 1.013 x 105 Pa C) 1.32 x 105 Pa B) 1.31 x 105 Pa D)1.03 x 105 Pa What is the pressure at the bottom of the pool if the water is seawater? A) 1.013 x 105 Pa C) 1.32 x 105 Pa B) 1.31 x 105 Pa D)1.03 x 105 Pa
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.
