Air at pressure 173.9 kPa flows through a pipe. The actual volume flow rate of air through the pipe is
measured to be 6.85 m3/s. The standard volume flow rate of this air flow is 2.71 m/s. Calculate the air
density in units of kg/m3. Hint: The ideal gas equation is useful for air.
2. The diameters of the suction and discharge pipes of a pump are 15 and 10 cm, respectively.
