Water enters a student's house 10.0 m above the ground through a pipe with a cross section area of 1.00 x 10-4m2 at ground. Inside the house the pipe's cross section area is 0.50 x 10-4m2. The student in the house want to know the water pressure inside the pipe at the ground level. He first measured the volume of the bath tank that equals to 45.0 L. Then he fill the tank (the tank is 10 meters above the ground) inside the house with 90.0 seconds. The pipe inside the house is open with the sea level pressure The density of water is 1000 kgm3. (a) Calculate the water speed at the ground pipe with larger cross section area and the water speed inside the house with smaller cross section area.
(b) Calculate the water pressure in the pipeline at the ground level.

(a). V₁ = 10m/s (velocity inside the house), V₂ = 5m/s (velocity at ground level)

(b). P₂ = 236500 Pa

Explanation:

This is quite straight-forward so let us begin by defining the terms given.

Given that;

The cross-section area inside the student's house A₁ = 0.50 0.50 x 10-4m2.

Let us make the velocity of water inside the house be V₁

such that the Volume of water entering the per second is = A₁V₁

Therefore, in 90sec:

45 L =  90 A₁V₁

V₁ = 45 * 10⁻³m³ / 90*0.5*10⁻⁴

V₁ = 10m/s            (velocity of water inside the house)

From the continuity equation we have that;

A₁V₁ = A₂V₂

0.5*10⁻⁴ * 10 = 1*10⁻⁴ V₂

V₂ = 5m/s               (velocity at ground level)

(b). We are told to calculate the water pressure in the pipeline at the ground level.

Using Bernoulli's equation;

P₁ + pgh₁ + 1/2PV₁²  (inside)      =       P₂ + pgh₂ + 1/2PV₂²   (ground level)

1.01*10⁵ + 1000*9.8*10 + 1/2*1000*(10)² = P₂ + 0 + 1/2*1000*(5)²

P₂ (pressure) = 1.01*10⁵Pa

Therefore we have;

101000 + 98000 + 50000 = P₂ + 12500

P₂ = 236500 Pa

cheers I hope this helped !!

the only real purpose of sputnik 1 was to beat the us into space. we were getting close to launching a useful satellite, explorer 1 - which launched on january 31, 1958. the ussr had to beat that, so they launched sputnik 1 on october 4, 19

float.

archimedes' principle

denser than water sinks in water.

denser than mercury would sink in it
