A venturi meter is used to measure the flow speed of a fluid in a pipe. The meter is connected between two sections of the pipe (Figure); the cross-sectional area of the entrance and exit of the meter matches the pipe's cross-sectional area. Between the entrance and exit, the fluid flows from the pipe with speed and then through a narrow "throat" of cross-sectional area a with speed . A manometer connects the wider portion of the meter to the narrower portion. The change in the fluid's speed is accompanied by a change in the fluid's pressure, which causes a height difference of the liquid in the two arms of the manometer. (Here means pressure in the throat minus pressure in the pipe.) (a) By applying Bernoulli's equation and the equation of continuity to points 1 and 2 in Figure, show that , where is the density of the fluid.
(b) Suppose that the fluid is fresh water, that the cross-sectional areas are in the pipe and in the throat, and that the pressure is in the pipe and in the throat. What is the rate of water flow in cubic meters per second?

A small solid ball is released from rest while fully submerged in a liquid and then its kinetic energy is measured when it has moved in the liquid. Figure 14-40 gives the results after many liquids are used: The kinetic energy is plotted versus the liquid density, and sets the scale on the vertical axis. (a)What is the density?(b) What is the volume of the ball?

When a pilot takes a tight turn at high speed in a modern fighter airplane, the blood pressure at the brain level decreases, blood no longer perfuse the brain, and the blood in the brain drains. If the heart maintains the (hydrostatic) gauge pressure in the aorta at (or ) when the pilot undergoes a horizontal centripetal acceleration of. What is the blood pressure () at the brain, localid="1657253735468" radially inward from the heart? The perfusion in the brain is small enough that the vision switches to black and white and narrows to 鈥渢unnel vision鈥 and the pilot can undergo g-LOC (鈥済-induced loss of consciousness鈥). Blood density is.
A garden hose with an internal diameter of is connected to a (stationary) lawn sprinkler that consists merely of a container with holes, each in diameter. If the water in the hose has a speed of , at what speed does it leave the sprinkler holes?
About one-third of the body of a person floating in the Dead Sea will be above the waterline. Assuming that the human body densityis find the density of the water in the Dead Sea. (Why is it so much greater than
