Answer:
p2 = 9.8×10^4 Pa
Explanation:
Total pressure is constant and PT = P = 1/2×ρ×v^2
So p1 + 1/2×ρ×(v1)^2 = p2 + 1/2×ρ×(v2)^2
from continuity we have ρ×A1×v1 = ρ×A2×v2
v2 = v1×A1/A2
and
r2 = 2×r1
then:
A2 = 4×A1
so,
v2 = (v1)/4
then:
p2 = p1 + 1/2×ρ×(v1)^2 - 1/2×ρ×(v2)^2 = p1 + 1/2×ρ×(v1)^2 - 1/2×ρ×(v1/4)^2
p2 = 3.0×10^4 Pa + 1/2×(1000 kg/m^3)×(12m/s)^2 - 1/2×(1000kg/m^3)×(12^2/16)
= 9.75×10^4 Pa
= 9.8×10^4 Pa
Therefore, the pressure in the wider section is 9.8×10^4 Pa
Work is (force applied) x (distance through which the force moves).
Since the suitcase doesn't move up or down during the 15 minutes,
no work is done ... zero, zip, nada ... according to the real Physics
definition of 'work'.
