G Water enters a house through a pipe 2.40 cm in diameter, at an absolute pressure of 4.10 atm. The pipe leading to the second-floor bathroom, 5.20 m above, is 1.20 cm in diameter. The flow speed at the inlet pipe is 4.75 m/s

a) What is the algebraic expression for flow speed in the bathroom?
b) Calculate the flow speed in the bathroom.
c) What is algebraic expression for the pressure in the bathroom?
d) Calculate the water pressure in the bathroom. Report your answer in the (atm) unit.

A) A₁ V₁ = A₂V₂

B) V₂ = 19 m /s

C) P₁ + (1/2)ρv₁² = P₂ + (1/2)ρv₂² + (h₂ - h₁ )ρg

D) P₂ = 1.88 atm

Explanation:

A) From the piaget's theory of conservation of volume, we can calculate the rate of flow of water from;

A₁ V₁ = A₂V₂

Where;

A₁ and A₂ are area of cross section V₁ and V₂ are velocity of flow at two places along pipe.

B) Using the formula given in A above, we obtain;

π x 1.2² x 4.75 = π x 0.6² x V₂

V₂ x 0.36 = 6.84

V₂ = 6.84/0.36

V₂ = 19 m /s

c ) To find pressure we shall apply Bernoulli's theorem in fluid dynamics;

P₁ + (1/2)ρv₁² = P₂ + (1/2)ρv₂² + (h₂ - h₁ )ρg

Where;

P₁ and P₂ are pressure at ground and second floor respectively

v₁ and v₂ are velocity at ground and second floor respectively

h₁ and h₂ are height at ground and second floor respectively ρ is density of water.

Thus, plugging in the relevant values to obtain;

4.1 x 10⁵ + (1/2 x 1000 x 4.75²) = P₂ + (1/2 x 1000 x 19²) + (5.2 x 1000 x 9.8)

(4.1 x 10⁵) + (0.11 x 10⁵) = P₂ + (1.8 X 10⁵) + (0.51 X 10

P₂ = 1.9 X 10⁵ N/m² = 1.88 atm
