    A large pipe with a cross sectional area A1=1.2 m2 has water flowing through it. The pressure in the pipe there is maintained at atmospheric pressure. The pipe then descends 3.7 m and narrows to a new cross sectional area A2. Water exits the pipe there into an environment at atmospheric pressure. What must the cross sectional area A2 of the pipe be in m2 if the water is exiting the pipe with a speed of 9.8 m/s?

    Can anyone explain to me what the Velocity Area method for measuring river or water flow is? My guess is that the product of the cross sectional area and the velocity of water flowing in a pipe is always constant. If the Cross sectional area of the pipe increases at a particular point, then the velocity decreases so that the product AV is a constant. Am I right? If so, how can we extend this to pipes where the water...

    Water is flowing through a circular tube with a cross-sectional area 0.4m^2 at a rate of 8m/s. Step 1: the cross-section of the tube gradually decreases to 0.2m^2, Step 2: then the water shoots out upright from the tape (in the up vertical direction), and gains 4m in height. What is the new velocity of the water after it gains 4m in height? [save to 1 decimal places] Assume g=10m/s2; for step 1 and 2, the water is under the...

    Water flows through a rectangular pipe at a speed of 3.73 m/s. The cross-sectional area of the pipe has a width W = 1.84 cm and a length L = 25.0 cm. The pipe then runs through a connection that changes the cross sectional area of the pipe to a circle. If the speed of water in the circular pipe is now 20.0 m/s, what is the radius R of the new pipe? Give your answer in cm. Note: ignore...
