Invalid path. A siphon is used to drain water from a tank as illustrated below. Assume steady flow without friction. (a) If h = 1.84 m, find the speed of outflow at the end of the siphon. m/s (b) What is the limitation on the height of the top of the siphon above the end of the siphon? Note: For the flow of liquid to be continuous, its pressure must not drop below its vapor pressure. Assume the water is at 14°C, at which the vapor pressure is 1.6 kPa.

Water is flowing through a pipe that has a constriction opening into a region with a wider cross-sectional area. If the pipe regions are cylindrical with radii of 0.10 m and 0.35 m, respectively, and the water is moving with a speed of 1.50 m/s in the wider section, what is the speed of the water in the constricted section?
You have probably noticed that carrying a person in a pool of water is much easier than carrying a person through air. To understand why, find the buoyant force exerted by air and by water on the person. Assume the average volume of a person is 0.45 m3, and that the person is submerged in air and water respectively.
