An incompressible fluid is flowing through a pipe with a constriction. The pipe

Question

An incompressible fluid is flowing through a pipe with a constriction. The pipe is on an incline with an angle of 20.0 degrees. The narrow section is 15.0 m from the wide section and the narrow section is lower than the wide section. The velocity of the fluid in the wide section of the pipe is 6.00 m/s and the velocity of the fluid in the narrow section of pipe is 9.00 m/s. The pressure of the fluid in the wide section is 250 kPa. What is the pressure in the narrow section of the pipe? (density of the fluid is 1,000 kg/m3)

Explanation / Answer

P+1/2*rho*v^2+rho*gh=constant using this

P+0.5*1000*9^2+0=250000+0.5*1000*6^2+1000*9.8*15*sin20

P=277777Pa=277.77kPa
