1water / 11000/2200
Ans.
25 25
Mass of block M= = = 45.833kg
1water / 11000/2200
33. Water flows through a 2.6 cm diameter pipe at 1.7m/s. If the pipe narrows to
1.6 cm diameter, whats the flow speed in the constriction?
Sol.
Continuity equation
vA=constant
2 2 2
A1 r1 D1 2.6
Speed of water at narrow pipe v 2=v 1 =v1 2 =v1 2 =1.7 2
=4.489 m/ s
A2 r2 D2 1.6
Ans.
2 2 2
A1 r1 D1 2.6
v 2=v 1 =v1 2 =v1 2 =1.7 2
=4.489 m/s
