If the atmospheric pressure is $$P_{a}$$, find (a) the speed of the fluid as it passes through the pipe; (b) the pressure of the fluid at points $$1,2,3,4$$ and $$5$$. (The value of $$P_{a}$$ is essentially the same at the both ends of the pipe).

Sketch in Fig $$3.61$$ is a thin walled tank having a small circular hole of area $$A_{1}$$ in its side. As you can see from the sketch, the cross-sectional area of the water jet emerging from the hole does not have constant area $$A_{1}$$ because this would require the streamlines to have sharp kinks in them where they pass through the hole. Instead the cross-sectional area of the jet diminishes for some distance after the jet leaves the hole. The area attains a minimum value $$A_{2}$$ where the streamlines are essentially parallel to one another. The location is called the vena contracta (Latin for narrow conduit). A detailed analysis is very difficult, even for the simplest case of circular hole in a thin plate. But, for this case, the result is $$A_{2}=\pi/(2+\pi)=0.611\ A_{1}$$. If the hole is circular with radius $$1.20\ cm$$ and the depth of the hole below the water surface is $$2.5\ m$$, what is the volume flux $$dV/dt$$ through the hole?

In 1654 Otto von Guericke, inventor of the air pump, gave a
demonstration before the noble-men of the Holy Roman Empire in

the hemispheres has magnitude $$F=\pi R^2 \vartriangle p$$, where $$\vartriangle p$$ is the difference between the pressures outside and inside the sphere.
(b) Taking R as 30 cm, the inside pressure as 0.10 atm, and the outside pressure as 1.00 atm, find the force magnitude the teams of
horses would have had to exert to pull apart the hemispheres. (c) Explain why one team of horses could have proved the point just as well if the hemispheres were attached to a sturdy wall.

The bends during flight. Anyone who scuba dives are advised not to fly within the next $$24\hspace{0.05cm} h$$ because the air mixture for diving can introduce nitrogen to the bloodstream.

A pitot tube is used to determine the air-speed of an airplane. It consists of an outer tube with a number of
small holes B (four are shown) that allow air into the tube; that tube is connected to one arm of a U-tube. The other arm of the U-tube is connected to hole A at the front end of the device, which points in the direction the plane is headed. At A the air becomes
stagnant so that $$v_{A}=0$$. At B, however, the speed of air presumably equals the airspeed $$v$$ of the plane (a) Use Bernoullis equation
to show that $$v=\sqrt{\dfrac{2\rho gh}{\rho_{air}}}$$, where $$\rho$$ is the density of the liquid in the U-tube and $$h$$ is the difference in the liquid levels in that tube.

The Bernoulli effect can have important consequences for the design of buildings. For example, wind can blow around a skyscraper at remarkably high speed, creating low pressure. The higher atmospheric pressure in the still air inside the buildings can cause windows to pop out.

What If? If a second skyscraper is built nearby, the airspeed can be especially high where wind passes through the narrow separation between the buildings. Solve part (a) again with a wind speed of $$22.4\ m/s$$, twice as high.
