Water is moving with a speed of 5.0msthrough a pipe with a cross-sectional area of 4.0cm2. The water gradually descends as the pipe cross-sectional area increases to 8.0cm2.

(a) What is the speed at the lower level?

(b) If the pressure at the upper level is 1.5105Pa, What is the pressure at the lower level?

Short Answer

Expert verified

a) The speed of the water at the lower level is 2.5ms.

b) The pressure of water at the lower level is 2.6105Pa.

Step by step solution

01

Given information

i) The speed of the water at the upper level,vu=5.0m/s .

ii) The area of the cross-section at the upper level, Au=4.0m2.

iii) The depth of the lower level, D=10m.

iv) The area of the cross-section at the lower level, A1=8.0m2.

v) The pressure at the upper level, u=1.5105Pa.

02

Determining the concept

Determine the speed of the water at the lower level using the equation of continuity. Then, using Bernoulli鈥檚 equation, find the pressure of water at the lower level. According to Bernoulli鈥檚 equation, as the speed of a moving fluid increases, the pressure within the fluid decreases.

Formulae are as follows:

p12蚁g2h+constant

Av=constant

Where, pis pressure,vis velocity, his height, gis an acceleration due to gravity, his height, Ais area, and is density.

03

(a) Determining the speed of the water at the lower level

The water flow through the pipe obeys the equation of continuity,

AuVu=A1V1

Hence,

V1=AiiVuAi

=4.0m25.0m/s8.0m2

=2.5ms

Hence, the speed of the water at the lower level is 2.5ms.

04

(b) Determining the pressure of water at the lower level

The water flow obeys Bernoulli鈥檚 principle.

So,

辫纬+12蚁gh+p=蚁纬+12蚁gh

Simplifying,

piPu12oqi2+7/(u1)

Where, hisht=D=10mand =Density of water=1000kg/m3.

Thus, putting the values,

role="math" pi=1.5105Pa+121000kg/m3(5m/s)2(2.5m/s)2+1000kg/m39.8m/s2(10m)

=2.57105Pa

2.6105Pa

Hence, the pressure of water at the level is 2.6105Pa.

When you cough, you expel air at high speed through the trachea and upper bronchi so that the air will remove excess mucus lining the pathway. You produce the high speed by this procedure: You breathe in a large amount of air, trap it by closing the glottis (the narrow opening in the larynx), increase the air pressure by contracting the lungs, partially collapse the trachea and upper bronchi to narrowthe pathway, and then expel the air through the pathway by suddenly reopening the glottis. Assume that during the expulsion the volume flow rate is7.010-3m3s.What multiple of343m/s(the speed of sound vs) is the airspeed through the trachea if the trachea diameter (a) remains its normal value of14mmand (b) contracts to5.2mm?

Figure 14-56 shows a siphon,which is a device for removing liquid from a container. Tube ABCmust initially be filled, but once this has been done, liquid will flow through the tube until the liquid surface in the container is level with the tube opening at A.The liquid has density 1000kg/m3and negligible viscosity. The distances shown are, h1=25cmd=12cm, and.h2=40cm (a) With what speed does the liquid emerge from the tube at C? (b) If the atmospheric pressure is 1.0105Pa, what is the pressure in the liquid at the topmost point B?(c)Theoretically, what is the greatest possible heightthat a siphon can lift water?

We fully submerge an irregular 3 kglump of material in a certain fluid. The fluid that would have been in the space now occupied by the lump has a mass of 2 kg. (a) When we release the lump, does it move upward, move downward, or remain in place? (b) If we next fully submerge the lump in a less dense fluid and again release it, what does it do?

A cylindrical tank with a large diameter is filled with water to a depth D=0.30m. A hole of cross-sectional area A=6.5cm2in the bottom of the tank allows water to drain out.

(a) What is the rate at which water flows out, in cubic meters per second?

(b) At what distance below the bottom of the tank is the cross-sectional area of the stream equal to one-half the area of the hole?

An alligator waits for prey by floating with only the top of its head exposed, so that the prey cannot easily see it. One way it can adjust the extent of sinking is by controlling the size of its lungs. Another way may be by swallowing stones (gastrolithes) that then reside in the stomach. Figure shows a highly simplified model (a 鈥渞hombohedron gater鈥) of mass130kgthat roams with its head partially exposed. The top head surface has area0.20m2. If the alligator were to swallow stones with a total mass of1.0%of its body mass (a typical amount), how far would it sink?
