Students have asked these similar questions
An air tube is open at both ends and contains constriction connected on both sides by a channel
of mercury.
a. What do you know about the air speed of the air flowing through the tube at this instant?
b. At time t later, the air speed is known to flow through the tube
from left to right at a rate of 1200 cm³/s. Draw three air
streamlines through the tube. Interpret what these lines are
telling you about the fluid moving through the tube.
c. What is the air speed in the wide and narrow parts of the tube?
d. What is the height difference in the columns of mercury? And
which column is higher?
3.0 cm

The pressure at the bottom of a tank of oil (s=0.80) is 410 kPa.
Determine the equivalent head in meters of oil.
Calculate the equivalent head in meters of water.
Evaluate the equivalent head in meters of mercury.
Good day. I require assistance as this will help in my examination review. (Basic Aerodyn Principles)
Consider the wind tunnel shown below. The diameter at section 1 is 0.8 m and the diameter at section 2 is 0.5 m. A manometer is used to determine the pressure difference between the two sections. The manometer liquid has a specific gravity of 0.82. Determine the change in height in the manometer if the velocity at section 2 is 72 m/s. Assume incompressible flow and standard sea-level conditions. Provide answer in centimeters. Round-off answer to the nearest whole number.
**Would gladly appreciate an explanation. Thank you.
