- A horizontal pipe of cross-sectional area 0.29 m2 at height 6 m carries water at speed 1.9 m/s. The pipe turns upward and levels out again to horizontal at height 14 m, where the pipe narrows to 0.11 m. If the pressure is 202 kPa at the original height, what is the pressure in kPa at the final height? The density of water is 1000 kg/m3. kPaarrow_forwardWater travels through a pipe at 11.1 m/s. The pipe expands from a crossectional area of 1.5 m2 to an area of 12.0 m2. What is the speed of the water in the second part of the pipe in m/s? How much is the pressure change in KPa as the pipe expands? The density of water is 1000 kg/m3. Enter a positive value for an increase in pressure, a negative value for a decrease.arrow_forward
