A flow-metering device consists of a stagnation probe at 2 and a static pressure tap at 1. The velocity at 2 is twice that at 1. Air with a density of 1.2 kg/m3 flows through the duct as shown in Figure 3. A water manometer is connected between the stagnation probe and the pressure tap, and a deflection of 10 cm is measured. What is the velocity at 2?
