Water at a gauge pressure of 3.8 atm at streetlevel flows into anoffice building at a speed of 0.40 m/s through a pipe 5.2cm indiameter. The pipe tapers down to 2.6 cm in diameter by thetopfloor, 20 m above, where the faucet has been left open.Calculatethe flow velocity and the gauge pressure in such a pipeon the topfloor. Assume no branch pipes and ignore viscosity.

Water flows through the pipe, as shown in the figure below andexits to the atmosphere at the right end of section C.


The diameter of the pipe is 2.20 cm at A, 1.10 cm at B, and 0.894cm at C. The gauge pressure in the pipe at the center of section Ais 1.22 atm and the flow rate is 0.780 L/s. The vertical pipes areopen to the air. Find the level (above the flow midline as shown)of the liquid-air interfaces in the two vertical pipes. Assumelaminar nonviscous flow.

Water flows in through a 3-cmdiameter pipe in the basement level ofa house at a rate of 12.5 m/s to an open second floor faucet. Thesecond floor faucet is located 7.2 meters above the basement inletpipe. Assume all the pipes in the house have the samediameter.
a) What will be the difference in water pressure between thebasement inlet pipe and the pipes on the second floor when thewater is not running?
b) what is the volume rate of flow of water into the house?
c) The faucet valve on the second floor has 1/2 the diameter of thewater pipes. What is the volume rate of flow of water out of thefaucet?
d) What will be the rate of flow (in m/s) out of the faucet valve?

Water circulates throughout a house in a hot-water heating system. If the water is pumped at a speed of 0.50 m/s through a 4.00 cm.diameter pipe in the basement under a pressure of 3.00 atm. what will the flow speed and pressure in a 2.60 cm pipe on the second floor which is 5.00m. above? Assume the pipes do not divide into branches.
