Every few years, winds in Boulder, Colorado, attain sustained speeds of 43.0 m/s (about 100 mph) when jet steam descends during early spring. Approximately what is the force due to the Bernoulli equation on a roof having an area of 220m2? Typical air density in Boulder is 1.14kg/m3, and be corresponding atmospheric pressure is 8.89104 N/m2. (Bernoulli’s principal as stated in the text assumes laminar flow. Using the principle here produces only an approximate result, because there is significant turbulence.)

(a) Using Bernoulli's equation, show that be measured fluid speed v for a pitot tube, like the one in figure 14.32(b), is given by v=( 2gh)1/h , where h is be height of be manometer fluid, p' is the density of the manometer fluid, p is the density of the moving fluid, and g is be acceleration due to gravity. (Note that v is indeed proportional to the square root of h, as stated in text) (b) Calculate v for moving air if a mercury manometer's h is 0.200 m. Figure 14.32 Measurement of fluid speed on Bernoulli’s principle. (a) A manometer is connected to two tubes close together and small enough not to disturb the flow. Tube 1 is open at the end facing the flow. A dead spot having zero speed is created there. Tube 2 has an opening on the side, so the fluid has a speed v across; thus, pressure there drops. The difference in pressure at the manometer is 12v22 , so h is proportional to . 12v22 (b) This type of velocity measuring device is a Prandtl tube, also known as a pitot tube.
