- An ideal fluid flows through a horizontal pipe whose diameter varies along its length. Measurements would indicate that the sum of the kinetic energy per unit volume and pressure at different sections of the pipe would (a) decrease as the pipe diameter increases, (b) increase as the pipe diameter increases, (c) increase as the pipe diameter decreases, (d) decrease as the pipe diameter decreases, or (e) remain the same as the pipe diameter changes.arrow_forwardIn an immersion measurement of a woman's density, she is found to have a mass of 62.0 kg in air an apparent mass of 0.0850 kg completely submerged with lungs empty.
