Gasoline (SG-0.7) flows down an inclined
pipe whose upper and lower sections are 90
mm (section 1) and 60 mm (section 2) in
diameter respectively. The pressure and
velocity in section 1 are 280 kPa and 2.3
m/s respectively. If the difference in
elevation between the 2 sections is 2.5m,
find the pressure at point 2.
An incompressible fluid (water) flows steadily from an open tank. The elevation of point 1 is 10.0m, and the elevation of point 2 and 3 is 2.00m. The cross-sectional area at point 2 is 0.0680 m^2, at point 3 it is 0.0360 m^2. The area of the tank is very large compared to the cross-sectional area of the pipe. Assuming that Bernoulli’s equation applies, compute:
(a) The discharge rate in cubic meters per second;(b) The gauge pressure at point 2.
