Question

1. (20 points) Below, a fluid mechanics probiem with two major errors is shown. Water fiows steadily upward through a pipe consisting of two sections with a smooth reducing section. Using the given information below, find the height difference 'h' from the mercury manometer. Friction is negligible in this flow. The density of mercury and water are given as pe 847 Ibm/f3 and pu 62.4 lbm/ft respectiveiy A1 0.08 ft2 42 0.05 ft V1 8 ft/s V2 15 ft/s P, 20 psi P2 18.5 psi 210 in 2 1 22 20 in You are trying to fix the problem by changing the values of A2 and P1. What should be the correct values in order to fix the two errors in the probiem? Explain your answer with relevant equations a. With the two corrected vaiues you from part a, what wouid be the manometer height difference in inches? .
