- Water is flowing without friction through a pipe. At the beginning of the pipe the water is flowing with a speed of 2.42 m/s, while at the end of the pipe the water is flowing at 5.74 m/s. The end of the pipe is higher than the beginning of the pipe. If the pressure is 60.8 kPa at the beginning of the pipe and 8.00 kPa at the end of the pipe, how much higher is the end of the pipe from the beginning of the pipe? [Answer in metres to 2 decimal places, but do not enter units with your answer] Your Answer: Your Answerarrow_forwardA garden hose with an internal diameter of 3.5 cm is connected to a (stationary) lawn sprinkler that consists merely of a container with 27 holes, each 0.27 cm in diameter. If the water in the hose has a speed of 0.89 m/s, at what speed does it leave the sprinkler holes?arrow_forwardA pipe leads from a storage tank on the roof of a building to the ground floor. The absolute pressure of the water in the storage tank where it connects to the pipe is 3.0 * 10^5 Pa, the pipe has a radius of 1.0 cm where it connects to the storage tank, and the speed of flow in this pipe is 1.6 m/s. The pipe on the ground floor has a radius of 0.50 cm and is 9.0 m below the storage tank. Find (a) the speed of flow and (b) the pressure in the pipe on the ground floor.arrow_forward
- A box has a length of 1.3 cm, a width of 6.4 cm, and a height of 3.2 cm. Its mass is 9.8 kg. The box sits at rest on a horizontal floor. What is the pressure of the box on the floor?arrow_forwardA bucket is filled with a combination of water (density 1000 kg/m3) and oil (density 700 kg/m3). These fluids do not mix (the oil will float on top of the water). If the layer of oil is 43 cm tall, what is the pressure at the interface between the oil and the water?arrow_forwardYou come across an open container that is filled with two liquids. Since the two liquids have different densities, there is a distinct separation between them. Water, which has a density of pw = 1.00 x 10° kg/m², fills the lower portion of the container to a depth of 0.206 m. The fluid that is floating on top of the water is 0.314 m deep. If the absolute pressure on the bottom of the container is 1.049 × 10° Pa, what is the density, p1, of the unknown fluid? The acceleration due to gravity is g = 9.81 m/s² and atmospheric pressure is Po = 1.013 × 10° Pa. Pi = kg/m³arrow_forward
- Water is flowing into a factory in a horizontal cylindrical pipe with a radius of 0.0193 m at ground level.This pipe is then connected to another horizontal cylindrical pipe with a radius of 0.0360 m on a floor of the factory that is h = 12.6 m higher.The connection is made with a vertical section of pipe and an expansion joint.Determine the volume flow rate that will keep the pressure in the two horizontal pipes the same. m3/sarrow_forwardA tube 5.00m long is inclined at an angle of 75° with the horizontal and is filled with water. What is the pressure at the bottom of the tube caused by the water if the tube is opened at the top?arrow_forwardA Venturi meter is a device for measuring the speed of a fluid within a pipe. The drawing shows a gas flowing at speed v2 through a horizontal section of pipe whose cross-sectional area is A2 = 0.0937 m2. The gas has a density of ρ = 1.30 kg/m3. The Venturi meter has a cross-sectional area of A1 = 0.0234 m2 and has been substituted for a section of the larger pipe. The pressure difference between the two sections is P2 - P1 = 149 Pa. Find (a) the speed v2 of the gas in the larger original pipe and (b) the volume flow rate Q of the gas. I posted it just now and recieved the wrong answers so i'm asking again. The answers are not A) 1.87 and B) 0.157.arrow_forward
- A 2.5 g latex balloon is filled with 2.4 g of helium. When filled, the balloon is a 30-cm-diameter sphere. When released, the balloon accelerates upward until it reaches a terminal speed. What is this speed?
