Textbook Question
Chapter 6, Problem 58P
Water flows out of a kitchen faucet of 1.25-in.-diameter at the rate of 0.1 L/s. The bottom of the sink is 45 cm below the faucet outlet. Will the cross-sectional area of the fluid stream increase, decrease, or remain constant between the faucet outlet and the bottom of the sink? Explain briefly. Obtain an expression for the stream cross section as a function of distance y above the sink bottom. If a plate is held directly under the faucet, how will the force required to hold the plate in a horizontal position vary with height above the sink? Explain briefly.

The pressure in a section of horizontal pipe with a diameter of 2 cm is 152 kPa. Water flows through the pipe at 2.80 L/ s. If the pressure at a certain point is to be reduced to 109 kPa by constricting a section of the pipe, what should the diameter of the constricted section be? Assume laminar nonviscous flow. Express your answer in meters to four decimal places.
