Question

In a venturemeter used for measuring the flow of oil (S = 0.85) through a horizontal pipeline, the pipe diameter is 2.4 times the diameter at the throat. Connections are made from the entrance to the meter and the throat to a vertical U tube containing mercury.

If the difference level between the fluids in the U-tube arms is (x +1/S.N ) in cm, where S.N. is student serial number. Neglect friction in the pipe. Find an expression in terms of x for the velocity of the oil in the pipe.
