A Pitot tube is a device commonly used in a wind tunnel to measure the speed of the air flowing over a model. The air speed is measured from the following equation: Using Excel, create a table that shows the air speed for the range of dynamic pressure of 500 to 800 Pa. Use increments of 50 Pa.
A venturi meter is a device that is used for measuring the flow rate of a fluid within
a pipe. Gas is flowing at speed v2 through a horizontal section of pipe, as shown in the
figure below, whose cross-sectional area is A2 = 0.0700 m2. The gas has a density of p =
1.30 kg/m. The venturi meter has a cross-sectional area of A1 = 0.0500 m2 and has been
substituted for a section of the larger pipe. The pressure difference between the two sections
is p2- P1 = 120 Pa. Find: (a) Find the speed vy of the gas in the larger, original pipe. (b)
Find the speed vị in the venturi. (c) Find the volume flow rate O of the gas.

Problem-4: An inverted hollow container with a uniform cross section area, A and height, H is
slowly pushed into water as shown. The water rises into the container by a distance l (and
compresses the air inside isothermally) as the cylinder is submerged into water by distance, d as
shown in the schematic.
1. Derive the relation between 1 and d in terms of water density and container geometry (A
and H).
Plot/sketch the same for 0 ≤ d ≤ H taking H = 1m.
