Chapter 6, Problem 32P
A jet of air from a nozzle is blown at right angles against a wall in which two pressure taps are located. A manometer connected to the tap directly in front of the jet shows a head of 25 mm of mercury above atmospheric. Determine the approximate speed of the air leaving the nozzle if it is at −10°C and 200 kPa. At the second tap a manometer indicates a head of 5 mm of mercury above atmospheric; what is the approximate speed of the air there?

A uniform tube is used to siphon water from the large tank. If the pressure on the outside of the tube (the atmospheric pressure) is more than 20 kPa greater than the pressure within the tube, the tube will collapse. By using Bernoulli's equation, determine the minimum value of h allowed without the siphon collapsing. The density of water is 1000 kg/m3. Hint: Since the tube is uniform the flow speed in it is constant. The exiting flow from the tube is treated as free jet. 2 m V SARA 1 4 m
Water, issuing vertically from a nozzle having a diameter of 25 mm, flows out under a head of 30 m. If C = Cv = 0.98, determine at what constant height could the jet of water support a load of 200 N vertically from the nozzle tip?
Water enters a turbine nozzle at an absolute pressure of 848 kPakPa with a velocity of 0.7 m/sm/s. If the nozzle outlet is exposed to an absolute pressure of 93 kPakPa, determine the maximum velocity to which water can be accelerated by the nozzle.
Given that the density of water is ρ=998kg/m3
