While snorkeling, what is the difference Δp (in atm) between the internal air pressure and the water pressure against the body if the length of the snorkel tube is 11.1 m? Is this pressure difference lethal? Type 0 for yes and 1 for no. Assume the density of the water is 1045 kg/m3. Tip: 1 atm = 101 325 Pa
A water barometer is used to measure air pressure in a duct where the air is being forced to ventilate a building. One end of the barometer is open to the atmosphere, and the other end is open to the inside of the ductwork. When the tube is bent in the shape of a U, the technician notes that the water level on the side toward the duct is lower than the side toward the atmosphere by 13.4 cm. What is the pressure difference in N/m2? The density of water is 1 gm/cm3 or 1000 kg/m3. Use 9.8 m/s2 for the acceleration of gravity.
An airplane wing is designed so that the speed of the air across the top of the wing is 250 m/s when the speed of the air below the wing is 225 m/s.

A 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 = 0.0619 m². The gas has a density of p = 1.30 kg/m³. The Venturi meter has a cross-sectional area of A₁ = 0.0393 m² and has been substituted for a section of the larger pipe. The pressure difference between the two sections is P₂ - P₁ = 90.8 Pa. Find (a) the speed v₂ of the gas in the larger original pipe and (b) the volume flow rate Q of the gas. P₂ Hi (a) Number i (b) Number A1 Lo P₁ Venturi meter Units Units ()
