Which is a vector quantity speed or velocity

Alecsey [184]

Velocity is a vector quantity. A vector quantity has both a magnitude and a direction. Speed only has a magnitude, but no direction. Velocity has both.

At one point in a pipeline, the water's speed is 3.57 m/s and the gauge pressure is 68.7 kPa. Find the gauge pressure at a secon

ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

The pressure at point 2 is $P_2 = 254.01 kPa$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The speed at point 1 is $v_1 = 3.57 \ m/s$

The gauge pressure at point 1 is $P_1 = 68.7kPa = 68.7*10^{3}\ Pa$

The density of water is $\rho = 1000 \ kg/m^3$

Let the height at point 1 be $h_1$ then the height at point two will be

$h_2 = h_1 - 18.5$

Let the diameter at point 1 be $d_1$ then the diameter at point two will be

$d_2 = 2 * d_1$

Now the continuity equation is mathematically represented as

$A_1 v_1 = A_2 v_2$

Here $A_1 , A_2$ are the area at point 1 and 2

Now given that the are is directly proportional to the square of the diameter [i.e $A= \frac{\pi d^2}{4}$ ]

which can represent as

$A \ \ \alpha \ \ d^2$

=> $A = c d^2$

where c is a constant

so $\frac{A_1}{d_1^2} = \frac{A_2}{d_2^2}$

=> $\frac{A_1}{d_1^2} = \frac{A_2}{4d_1^2}$

=> $A_2 = 4 A_1$

Now from the continuity equation

$A_1 v_1 = 4 A_1 v_2$

=> $v_2 = \frac{v_1}{4}$

=> $v_2 = \frac{3.57}{4}$

$v_2 = 0.893 \ m/s$

Generally the Bernoulli equation is mathematically represented as

$P_1 + \frac{1}{2} \rho v_1^2 + \rho * g * h_1 = P_2 + \frac{1}{2} \rho v_2^2 + \rho * g * h_2$

So

$P_2 = \rho * g (h_1 -h_2 )+P_1 + \frac{1}{2} * \rho (v_1^2 -v_2 ^2 )$

=> $P_2 = \rho * g (h_1 -(h_1 -18.3) + P_1 + \frac{1}{2} * \rho (v_1^2 -v_2 ^2 )$

substituting values

$P_2 = 1000 * 9.8 (18.3) )+ 68.7*10^{3} + \frac{1}{2} * 1000 ((3.57)^2 -0.893 ^2 )$

$P_2 = 254.01 kPa$

Pressure is about 1000 hPa at sea level and about 500 hPa at an altitude of 5.5 km. Why doesn’t this vertical pressure gradient

saul85 [17]

Answer:

A. The upward pressure gradient force is balanced by gravity.

Explanation:

A. is correct because the pressure difference is actually generated by gravity. As in the following formula for the pressure at different points:

$p = p_0 + \rho g h$

where $p, p_0$ are the pressure at 2 points, ρ is the density of the fluid, g is the gravitational constant, and h is the height difference.

B is incorrect because friction in air is too small to make an effect.

C is incorrect because the Coriolis force is horizontal, not vertical.

D is incorrect because a difference of 500 hPa = 50000 Pa, this is half of the atmospheric pressure.

E is incorrect because temperature cannot generate force.
