Flow rates of water -The speed at which water travels in
A pipe can be measured by directing the flow through an
Elbow and measuring the height to which it spurts out
The top. If the elbow height is 10cm, the equation relating
The height h (in centimeters )of the water above the elbw
And its velocity v(in centimeters per second )is given by
(a) Solve the equation for h and graph the result,
Using the velocity as the independent variable.
(b) If the velocity is 210 cm/sec, what is the height
Of the water above the elbow?
