Question
Suppose you have a wind speed gauge like the pitot tube shown in the figure below.
By what factor must wind speed increase to quintuple the value of h in the manometer? And is this independent of the moving fluid and the fluid in the manometer (yes or no)?

- AST Water is flowing in the pipe shown in the figure below, with the 8.20-cm diameter at point 1 tapering to 3.85 cm at point 2, located y 12.5 cm below point 1. The water pressure at point 1 is 3.20 x 10 Pa and decreases by 50% at point 2. Assume steady, ideal flow. What is the speed of the water at the following points? (a) point 1 x Your response is within 10% of the correct value. This may be due to roundoff error, or you could have a mistake in your calculation Carry out all intermediate results to at least four-digit accuracy to minimize roundoff error. m/s (b) point 2 x Your response is within 10% of the correct value. This may be due to roundoff error, or you could have a mistake in your calculation.

- Calculate the Reynolds numbers for the flow of water through a nozzle with a radius of 0.270 cm and a garden hose with a radius of 0.940 cm, when the nozzle is attached to the hose. The flow rate through hose and nozzle is 0.485 L/s. (Assume the temperature of the water is 20°C.) (a) a nozzle with a radius of 0.270 cm Can the flow possibly be laminar? Yes No (b) a garden hose with a radius of 0.940 cm Can the flow possibly be laminar? Yes Noarrow_forwardYou fill a balloon with helium and let it go.
