![**Problem 10.52**
**Context:**
Air at a temperature of 40°C flows through a duct at point A with a velocity of 2.0 m/s. The density of air, \( \rho_{\text{air}} = 1.127 \, \text{kg/m}^3 \).
**Task (Part A):**
Determine the change in pressure between points A and B. Account for the minor loss caused by the sudden change in diameter of the duct.
**Instructions:**
Express your answer to three significant figures and include the appropriate units.
\[ p_B - p_A = \text{Value} \, \text{Units} \]
**Submission:**
- Enter your answer in the provided text box.
- Click "Submit" to record your response.
**Provide Feedback:**
- A link is provided to offer feedback on the problem setup.
**Figure Description:**
- The diagram illustrates a duct with a sudden expansion.
- The diameter at point A is 200 mm, and at point B, it is 300 mm.
- The flow direction is indicated by an arrow pointing from A to B.](https://content.bartleby.com/qna-images/question/f2e99635-9351-4a90-90be-f1d1f0c280c7/4bad9cf1-96eb-4618-a394-970dfb81015c/zgmbufq_thumbnail.png)
