Air flows through the tube shown in FIGURE P14.63. Assume that air is an ideal fluid. The tube has a main diameter of \(1.0 \text{ cm}\) at point 2 and a constricted diameter of \(2.0 \text{ mm}\) at point 1. A mercury manometer connects a static pressure tap at point 1 to a stagnation pressure probe facing the flow at point 2, showing a mercury height difference of \(h = 10 \text{ cm}\). (a) What are the air speeds \(v_1\) and \(v_2\) at points 1 and 2? (b) What is the volume flow rate?
π Solution Approach
Given: 1. A
Find: (a) What are the air speeds \; (b) What is the volume flow rate?
