Question
Water is circulating through a closed system of pipes in a two floor apartment. On the first floor, the water has a gauge pressure of 3.30 105 Pa and a speed of 2.0 m/s. However, on the second floor, which is 4.4 m higher, the speed of the water is 3.5 m/s. The speeds are different because the pipe diameters are different. What is the gauge pressure of the water on the second floor

Answer:
P₂ = 2.82755 * 10⁵ Pa
Explanation:
Parameters for the first floor:
Guage pressure, P₁ = 3.30 * 10⁵ Pa
Speed, v₁ = 2.0 m/s
Height of the first floor = h₁
Parameters of the second floor:
Guage Pressure, P₂ = ?
Speed = 3.5 m/s
height of the second floor = h₂
From the question, h₂ – h₁ = 4.4 m, i.e. h₁ – h₂ = – 4.4 m
Density of water,
According to the Bernoulli’s equation
Answer:
Explanation:
Given Data
height of the second floor=
solution:
For this type of numericals we use Bernoulli’s Equation which states as;
we know that
and
putting these values, we get
using calculator, we get
