To water the yard you use a hose with a diameter of 3.2 cm. Water flows from the hose with a speed of 1.1 m/s. If you partially block the hose so that the effective diameter is now 0.57 cm, with what speed does the water now flow from the hose

Answer :

Answer:

The speed of water flow inside the pipe at point - 2 = 34.67 m / sec

Explanation:

Given data

Diameter at point - 1 = 3.2 cm

Velocity at point - 1 = 1.1 m / sec = 110 cm / sec

Diameter at point - 2 = 0.57 cm

Velocity at point - 2 = ??

We know that from the continuity equation the rate of flow is constant inside  a pipe between two points.

Thus

⇒ [tex]A_{1}[/tex] × [tex]V_{1}[/tex] = [tex]A_{2}[/tex] × [tex]V_{2}[/tex]

⇒  [tex]\frac{\pi }{4}[/tex] × [tex]d_{1} ^{2}[/tex] × [tex]V_{1}[/tex] =

⇒  [tex]d_{1} ^{2}[/tex] × [tex]V_{1}[/tex] =  [tex]d_{2} ^{2}[/tex]  × [tex]V_{2}[/tex]

⇒  [tex](3.2)^{2}[/tex] × 110 = [tex](0.57)^{2}[/tex] × [tex]V_{2}[/tex]

⇒ [tex]V_{2}[/tex] = 3467 cm / sec

⇒ [tex]V_{2}[/tex] = 34.67 m / sec  

Thus the speed of water flow inside the pipe at point - 2 = 34.67 m / sec
