- A liquid-filled tube called a manometer can be used to measure the pressure inside a container by comparing it to the atmospheric pressure and measuring the height of the liquid. Such a device (filled with water) is shown in the figure, measuring the pressure inside a balloon filled with an unknown gas. The water level on the side of the manometer which is open to the air is 22.3 cm higher than on the side connected to the balloon. a) Find the gauge pressure in the balloon, in units of Pa. Recall the density of water is 1000 kg/m3. b) Find the absolute pressure in the balloon, in units of Pa.arrow_forwardSuppose you have a 8.8 cm diameter fire hose with a 3.6 cm diameter nozzle. a) Calculate the pressure drop due to the Bernoulli effect as water enters the nozzle from the hose at the rate of 40.0 L/s. Take 1.00 × 103 kg/m3 for the density of the water. b) To what maximum height, in meters, above the nozzle can this water rise? (The actual height will be significantly smaller due to air resistance.arrow_forwardWhen a person inhales, air moves down the bronchus (windpipe) at 13.8 cm/s. The average flow speed of the air doubles through a constriction in the bronchus. Assuming incompressible flow, determine the pressure drop in the constriction.

- Water 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.
