Textbook Question
Chapter 12, Problem 6CQ
Look back to Figure 12.4. Answer the following two questions. Why is POless than atmospheric? Why is POgreater than Pi?
Figure 12.4 An overhead view of a car passing a truck on a highway. Air passing between the vehicles flows in a narrower channel and must increase its speed (V2 is greater than V1), causing the pressure between them to drop (Pi is less than PO). Greater pressure on the outside pushes the
car and truck together.
