1. A large storage tank, open to the atmosphere at the top and filled <strong>with</strong><br />
water, develops a small hole in its side at a point 16 m below the water<br />
level. If the rate of flow of water from the leak is 2.5 × 10 −3 m 3 /min,<br />
determine the following:<br />
a. the speed at which the water leaves the hole<br />
b. the diameter of the hole<br />
2. A liquid <strong>with</strong> a density of 1.65 × 10 3 kg/m 3 flows through two horizontal<br />
sections of tubing joined end to end. In the first section, the crosssectional<br />
area is 10.0 cm 2 , the flow speed is 275 cm/s, and the pressure is<br />
1.20 × 10 5 Pa. In the second section, the cross-sectional area is 2.50 cm 2 .<br />
Calculate the following:<br />
a. the flow speed in the smaller section<br />
b. the pressure in the smaller section<br />
3. When a person inhales, air moves down the windpipe at 15 cm/s. The<br />
average flow speed of the air doubles when passing through a constriction<br />
in the bronchus. Assuming incompressible flow, determine the pressure<br />
drop in the constriction.<br />
1. The time required to fill a bucket <strong>with</strong> water from a certain garden hose<br />
is 30.0 s. If you cover part of the hose’s nozzle <strong>with</strong> your thumb so that<br />
the speed of the water leaving the nozzle doubles, how long does it take<br />
to fill the bucket?<br />
2. Water at a pressure of 3.00 × 10 5 Pa flows through a horizontal pipe at a<br />
speed of 1.00 m/s. The pipe narrows to one-fourth its original diameter.<br />
Find the following:<br />
a. the flow speed in the narrow section<br />
b. the pressure in the narrow section<br />
3. The water supply of a building is fed through a main entrance pipe that<br />
is 6.0 cm in diameter. A 2.0 cm diameter faucet tap positioned 2.00 m<br />
above the main pipe fills a 2.5 × 10 −2 m 3 container in 30.0 s.<br />
a. What is the speed at which the water leaves the faucet?<br />
b. What is the gauge pressure in the main pipe?<br />
