A golf course sprinkler system discharges water from a horizontal pipe at the rate of 7200 cm3/s. At one point in the pipe, wher

e the radius is 4.00 cm, the water's absolute pressure is 2.40×105Pa. At a second point in the pipe, the water passes through a constriction where the radius is 2.00 cm. What is the water’s absolute pressure as it flows through this constriction?

Answer:P_2=2.246\times 10^5 Pa

Explanation:

Given

Flow rate Q=7200 cm^3/s

At one Point r_1=4 cm

A_1=\frac{\pi d_1^2}{4}

A_1=\frac{\pi 64}{4}=16\pi cm^2

P_1=2.4\times 10^5 Pa

At second Point

r_2=2 cm

A_2=\frac{\pi d_2^2}{4}

A_2=4\pi cm^2

Density of water \rho =10^3 kg/m^3

As Flow is constant therefore

Q=A_1v_1=A_2v_2

v_1=\frac{Q}{A_1}=\frac{7200}{16\pi }=143.22 cm/s\approx =1.43 m/s

v_2=\frac{Q}{A_2}=\frac{7200}{4\pi }=572.88 cm/s\approx 5.72 m/s

Applying Bernoulli's theorem

P_1+\frac{\rho v_1^2}{2}+\rho gh_1=P_2+\frac{\rho v_2^2}{2}+\rho gh_2

as pipe is horizontal therefore h_1-h_2=0

thus P_2=P_1+\frac{\rho }{2}\left [ v_1^2-v_2^2\right ]

P_2=2.40\times 10^5+\frac{10^3}{2}\left [ 1.43^2-5.72^2\right ]

P_2=2.40\times 10^5-0.1533\times 10^5

P_2=2.246\times 10^5 Pa

Set up a free body diagram. 

<span>and by reason, Tcd = Tbd </span>

<span>Tbd y = 275 - 300*sinθ </span>
<span>Tcd y = Tc - 300*sin30 </span>

<span>Tbd x = 300*cosθ </span>
<span>Tcdx = 300 * cos30 </span>

<span>Tbd^2 = (275 - 300*sinθ)^2 + (300*cosθ)^2 </span>
<span>Tcd^2 = (300*sin30)^2 + (300 * cos30)^2 </span>

<span>(275 - 300*sinθ)^2 + (300*cosθ)^2 = (300*sin30)^2 + (300 * cos30)^2 </span>
