A fluid flows through a pipe whose cross-sectional area changes from 2.00 m2 to 0.50 m2 . If the fluid’s speed in the wide part

of the pipe is 3.5 m/s, what is its speed when it moves through the narrow part of the pipe?

Answer:

v₂ = 7/ (0.5)= 14 m/s

Explanation:

Flow rate of the fluid

Flow rate is the amount of fluid that circulates through a section of the pipeline (pipe, pipeline, river, canal, ...) per unit of time.

The formula for calculated the flow rate is:

Q= v*A Formula (1)

Where :

Q is the Flow rate (m³/s)

A is the cross sectional area of a section of the pipe (m²)

v is the speed of the fluid in that section (m/s)

Equation of continuity

The volume flow rate Q for an incompressible fluid at any point along a pipe is the same as the volume flow rate at any other point along a pipe:

Q₁= Q₂

Data

A₁ = 2m² : cross sectional area 1

v₁ = 3.5 m/s : fluid speed through A₁

A₂ = 0.5 m² : cross sectional area 2

Calculation of the fluid speed through A₂

We aply the equation of continuity:

Q₁= Q₂

We aply the equation of Formula (1):

v₁*A₁= v₂*A₂

We replace data

(3.5)*(2)= v₂*(0.5)

7 = v₂*(0.5)

v₂ = 7/ (0.5)

v₂ =  14 m/s

Issac and Blaise decide to race. They both start at the same position at the same time. Issac runs at 2m/s but decides to take a
FromTheMoon [43]

Let the Blaise runs for time "t" to complete the race

so the total distance he moved is given by

d_1 = 1* t

Now Issac runs for time t = "t - 2*60"

because it took rest for 2 minutes

d_2 = 2*(t - 120)

now it is given that Blaise wins by 10 m distance

d_1 - d_2 = 10

1* t - 2*(t - 120) = 10

t - 2t + 240 = 10

t = 230 s

now the distance moved by Blaise is given by

d_1 = 1*230 = 230 m
