A mercury manometer is attached to a nozzle through which water flows with an inlet velocity of 2 m/s. Additionally, a piezometer is attached at the small diameter section of the nozzle. The nozzle is inclined at 30° from the horizontal and the distance between the arms of the manometer along the nozzle is 40 cm. The nozzle inlet diameter is 40 cm whereas the exit diameter is 20 cm. Determine the differential height of mercury between the two pipe sections. If the height in the piezometer is 20 cm, determine the pressure at the inlet.

A 90" elbow is used to direct water flow at a rate of 0,025 m3/s in a horizontal pipe upward. The diameter of the entire elbow is 10 cm. The elbow discharges water into the atmosphere, and thus the pressure at the exit is the local atmospheric pressure. The elevation difference betwoen the centers of the exit and the inlet of the elbow is 35 cm. The weight of the elbow and the water in it is considered to be negligible. Determine the anchoring force needed to hold the elbow in place A) 27 N 3433.5 N C) 79.5 N D) 132. 9 E) 106. 5 N
Two identical upright cylindrical tanks contains H2O,the first tank is full and the second is 2/3-full. If theradii of the orifices are the same, compare the time todrain of each tank. answer: √1.5
The impeller of a centrifugal blower has a radius of 15 cm and a blade width of 6.1 cm at the inlet, and a radius of 30 cm and a blade width of 3.4 cm at the outlet. The blower delivers atmospheric air at 20°C and 95 kPa. Disre- garding any losses and assuming the tangential components of air velocity at the inlet and the outlet to be equal to the impeller velocity at respective locations, determine the volu- metric flow rate of air when the rotational speed of the shaft is 800 rpm and the power consumption of the blower is 120 W. Also determine the normal components of velocity at the inlet and outlet of the impeller.
Determine the loss of head due to sudden enlargement in a pipe carrying 57 L/s of water which suddenly changes from a diameter of 15 cm to 20 cm. Also find the pressure difference between points before and after the change of section.
In a horizontal pipe water flows at a rate of 9.1 L/s. Here, the pipe has two sections, one with a diameter of 10.16 cm and the other with a diameter of 5.08 cm, with a gradual smooth reducing section. In this case, a mercury manometer is used to measure the pressure difference. If friction is negligible how would I find the differential height of mercury between the two sections? If the manometer on the 5.08cm pipe section was replaced with a pitot tube how would the reading change? any help would be deeply appreciated
A hydroelectric power plant uses Pelton-type turbines, in which multiple nozzles are used to accelerate the waterwhich is directed onto the turbine blades, which are exposed to an atmospheric pressure of 101.325 kPa. The water enters the nozzles with an absolute pressure of 500 kPa and a speed of 5 m/s, and the nozzle outlets are exposed to atmospheric pressure and have an internal diameter of 5 cm. Consider that the specific mass of water is 1,000 kg/m3. Determine the mass flow rate of water through each of the nozzles, and explain why the actual mass flow rate will be lower.
