Water circulates throughout a house in a hot-water heating system. If the water is pumped at a speed of 0.4 m/s through a 4-cm-diameter pipe in the basement under a pressure of 3.1 atm, what will be the pressure in a 2.2-cm-diameter pipe on the second floor 4.5 m above? Assume the pipes do not divide into branches. (Write the value with 2-decimal digits and SI unit.)

A water pipe having a 2.37 cm inside diameter carries water into the basement of a house at a speed of 0.873 m/s and a pressure of 214 kPa. If the pipe tapers to 1.24 cm and rises to the second floor 7.36 m above the input point, what are the (a) speed and water pressure at the second floor? (a) Number i (b) Number i Units Units
A sump pump (used to drain water from the basement of houses built below the water table) is draining a flooded basement at the rate of 0.700 L/s, with an output pressure of 2.00 x 105 N/m². You may neglect frictional losses in both parts of this problem. (a) The water enters a hose with a 3.00 cm inside diameter and rises 3.00 m above the pump. What is its pressure (in N/m²) at this point? N/m² (b) The hose goes over the foundation wall, losing 1.70 m in height, and widens to 4.00 cm diameter. What is the pressure now (in N/m²)? N/m²
Water flows at 1 m/s from a hot water heater, through a 410 kPa pressure regulator. The pressure in the pipe supplying an upstairs bathtub 3 m above the heater is 350 kPa. What’s the speed in this upstairs pipe? (Numerical answer is assumed to be in m/s)
Balloon angioplasty is a technique to restore blood flow through coronary arteries that have been narrowed by the build-up of plaque. The surgeon threads a catheter into the coronary artery, then inflates a balloon that compresses the plaque against the wall of the artery. Suppose a diseased coronary artery has a diameter of 2.0 mm. To what diameter must it be expanded to increase the blood flow by a factor of 5.0 with no change in pressure?
A sump pump (used to drain water from the basement of houses built below the water table) is draining a flooded basement at the rate of 0.75 L/s, with an output pressure of 1.5×10^5 Pa. (a) The water enters a hose with a 2.8 cm inside diameter and rises 2.2 m above the pump. What is its pressure at this point? (b) The hose goes over the foundation wall, losing 0.55 m in height, and widens to 6.6 cm in diameter. What is the pressure now? You may neglect frictional losses in both parts of the problem.
Suppose you measure a standing person’s blood pressure by placing the cuff on his leg 0.525 m below the heart. For this problem, assume that there is no loss of pressure due to resistance in the circulatory system (a reasonable assumption, since major arteries are large). The density of blood is 1.05×103 kg/m3 a. Calculate the systolic pressure you would observe, in units of mm Hgmm Hg, if the pressure at the heart was 120 over 80 mm Hg. Note that the top (and greater) number is the systolic pressure. b. Calculate the diastolic pressure you would observe, in units of mm Hgmm Hg, if the pressure at the heart was 120 over 80 mm Hg. Note that the bottom (smaller) number is the diastolic pressure.
An airplane wing is designed so that the speed of the air across the top of the wing is 250 m/s when the speed of the air below the wing is 225 m/s. What is the difference in pressure (AP=P2 - P1) below and above the wing? Assume that the difference in height between the top and bottom of the wing is negligible. The density of the air is 1.29 kg/m³ 7.66 x 10³ Pa 280 x 10³ Pa 1.58 x 10³ Pa 2.59 x 104 Pa
A pipe with a radius of 51 cm has water flowing at 5.3 m/s. If water goes into a new pipe with radius 21 cm, how much will the pressure decrease? ΔΡ- unit Pa
In medical work, pressures are often measured in units of mm of H2O because body fluids, including the cerebrospinal fluid, typically have nearly the same density as water. The pressure of the cerebrospinal fluid can be measured by means of a spinal tap. A hollow tube is inserted into the spinal column, and the height to which the fluid rises is observed. If the fluid rises to a height of 160 mm, we write its gauge pressure as 160 mm H2O. (a) Express this pressure in pascals, in atmospheres, and in millimeters of mercury. (b) Sometimes it is necessary to determine whether an accident victim has suffered a crushed vertebra that is blocking the flow of cerebrospinal fluid in the spinal column. In other cases, a physician may suspect that a tumor or other growth is locking the spinal column and inhibiting the flow of cerebrospinal fluid. Such conditions can be investigated by means of the Queckensted test. In this procedure the veins in the patient’s neck are compressed, to make the…
In an industrial cooling process, water is circulated through a system. If water is pumped with a speed of 5.20 m/s under a pressure of 5.00*10^5 Pa from the first floor through a 3.80-cm diameter pipe, what will be the pressure on the next floor 3.50 m above in a pipe with a diameter of 3.00 cm?
