Question 6 chap 9 sect 7 part 1 of 1 10 points Note Patm 10
Question 6, chap 9, sect 7. part 1 of 1 10 points Note: Patm = 101300 Pa/atm. The viscos- ity of the fluid is negligible and the fluid is incompressible.. A liquid of density 1219 kg/m3 flows with speed 2.21 m/s into a pipe of diameter 0.27 m. The diameter of the pipe decreases to 0.05 m at its exit end. The exit end of the pipe is 7.51 m lower than the entrance of the pipe, and the pressure at the exit of the pipe is 1 atm. The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s2 . P1 2.21 m/s 0.27 m P2 1atm v2 0.05 m 7.51m 5.2 m/s 3.2 cm v2 2.3 cm Applying Bernoulli’s principle, what is the pressure P1 at the entrance end of the pipe? Answer in units of Pa.
Solution
GIven V1=2.21 m/s and d=0.27 m ,
d2=0.05 m ,V2=?
h1-h2=7.51 m
From Continuity equation
A1V1 = A2V2
(pi/4)*0.272*2.21 =(pi/4)*0.052*V2
V2=64.44 m/s
From Bernoulli\'s equation
P1+(1/2)pV12+pgh1 =P2+(1/2)pV22+pgh2
P1=P2+(1/2)p(V22-V12)-pg(h1-h2)
P1=101300+(1/2)*1219*(64.442-2.212)-1219*9.8*7.51
P1=2.54*106 Pa
