In a Venturi-meter through which water is flowing, the speed of water through the wider tube is 2×10^-2 m/s and the height of the liquid in the manometer is 5.1 mm. The density of water is 1000 Kg/m^3. Find the speed of water through the narrow tube. |

Answer» The height difference between the POINTS X and y is 5.1 mm Therefore, the pressure difference between the 2 points will be, P=ρgh P=1×1000×0.51 P = 510 Applying Bernoulli's theorem, δP+0.5ρδv 2 =0 δP=510 510=0.5×1×(V 2 2
−2 2 ) Hence, v 2 2
=1024 or v 2
=32cm/sec |
