| 1 | \[A_1v_1 = A_2v_2\] | Apply the principle of continuity, which states that for an incompressible fluid, the mass flow rate must be constant. This implies that the product of the cross-sectional area and the velocity is constant along the flow path. |
| 2 | \[\frac{v_2}{v_1} = \frac{A_1}{A_2} = \left(\frac{d_1}{d_2}\right)^2 = 100\] | Given that the diameter of the hose is \(10\) times that of the nozzle, the area ratio \(\left(\frac{A_1}{A_2}\right)\) is \(10^2 = 100\). Therefore, \(v_2 = 100 \times v_1\). |
| 3 | \[v_2 = 100 \times 0.4 \, \text{m/s} = 40 \, \text{m/s}\] | Substitute \(v_1 = 0.4 \, \text{m/s}\) into the equation to find \(v_2\). This is the velocity of water at the nozzle. |
| 4 | \[P_1 + \frac{1}{2}\rho v_1^2 + \rho gy_1 = P_2 + \frac{1}{2}\rho v_2^2 + \rho gy_2\] | Apply Bernoulli’s Equation considering points at the pump (Point 1) and at the nozzle (Point 2). Pressure, kinetic energy per unit volume, and potential energy per unit volume are balanced between the two points. |
| 5 | \[P_1 + \frac{1}{2}\rho (0.4)^2 + 0 = P_{\text{atm}} + \frac{1}{2}\rho (40)^2 + \rho g(1)\] | Substitute known values: \(v_1 = 0.4 \, \text{m/s}\), \(y_1 = 0\), \(y_2 = 1\), and \(v_2 = 40 \, \text{m/s}\). At Point 2, pressure equals atmospheric pressure \(P_{\text{atm}}\). |
| 6 | \[P_1 = P_{\text{atm}} + \rho g + \frac{1}{2}\rho (40)^2 – \frac{1}{2}\rho (0.4)^2\] | Reorganize the equation to express the pressure at the pump, \(P_1\), in terms of atmospheric pressure and other known quantities. |
| 7 | \[P_1 – P_{\text{atm}} = \rho g + \frac{1}{2}\rho ((40)^2 – (0.4)^2)\] | Calculate the pressure difference between the pump and the atmosphere. |
| 8 | \[P_1 – P_{\text{atm}} = 1000 \times 9.8 + \frac{1}{2} \times 1000 ((40)^2 – (0.4)^2)\] | Use \(\rho = 1000 \, \text{kg/m}^3\) for the density of water and \(g = 9.8 \, \text{m/s}^2\) for gravitational acceleration. Calculate the individual energy terms in the equation. |
| 9 | \[P_1 – P_{\text{atm}} = 9800 + \left( \frac{1}{2} \right) 1000 \times (1600 – 0.16)\] | Substitute and simplify the calculation for kinetic and potential energies. |
| 10 | \[P_1 – P_{\text{atm}} = 9800 + 800000\] | Complete the calculations: \((1600 – 0.16) = 1599.84\). Therefore, \(\frac{1}{2} \times 1000 \times 1599.84 = 799920\) Pa. |
| 11 | \[P_1 – P_{\text{atm}} = 809800 \, \text{Pa}\] | Convert the final result to kilopascals \( \text{kPa} \) (1 \(\text{kPa} = 1000 \text{Pa} \)). Box the final answer. |
| 12 | \[ \boxed{810 \, \text{kPa}} \] | The result shows the pressure difference between the pump and the atmospheric pressure. The correct multiple-choice answer is \( (d) \, 810 \, \text{kPa} \). |
Just ask: "Help me solve this problem."
The \( 70 \) \( \text{kg} \) student in the figure balances a \( 1200 \) \( \text{kg} \) elephant on a hydraulic lift. Assume that it is filled with oil, which is incompressible and has a density \( \rho = 900 \) \( \text{kg/m}^3 \). What is the diameter of the piston the student is standing on? Assume each piston has a cylindrical shape, i.e., a circular cross-sectional area. Note: The two pistons are at the same height. Also, the diameter of the wider piston is given in the figure to be \( 2.0 \) \( \text{m} \).
A geologist suspects that her rock specimen is hollow, so she weighs the specimen in both air and water. When completely submerged, the rock weighs twice as much in air as it does in water.
A Venturi meter is a device used for measuring the speed of a fluid within a pipe. The drawing shows a gas flowing at a speed \( v_2 \) through a horizontal section of pipe with a cross-sectional area \( A_2 = 542 \) \( \text{cm}^2 \). The gas has a density of \( 1.35 \) \( \text{kg/m}^3 \). The Venturi meter has a cross-sectional area of \( A_1 = 215 \) \( \text{cm}^2 \) and has been substituted for a section of the larger pipe. The pressure difference between the two sections \( P_2 – P_1 = 145 \) \( \text{Pa} \).
Suppose we wish to make a neutrally buoyant hollow sphere out of titanium (\(\rho = 4500 \text{kg/m}^3\)). If the sphere has an outer radius of \( 1.5 \) \( \text{m} \), what must be its inner radius?
An object is suspended from a spring scale first in air, then in water, as shown in the figure above. The spring scale reading in air is \( 17.8 \) \( \text{N} \), and the spring scale reading when the object is completely submerged in water is \( 16.2 \) \( \text{N} \). The density of water is \( 1000 \) \( \text{kg/m}^3 \).

Example of using unit analysis: Convert 5 kilometers to millimeters.
Start with the given measurement: [katex]\text{5 km}[/katex]
Use the conversion factors for kilometers to meters and meters to millimeters: [katex]\text{5 km} \times \frac{10^3 \, \text{m}}{1 \, \text{km}} \times \frac{10^3 \, \text{mm}}{1 \, \text{m}}[/katex]
Perform the multiplication: [katex]\text{5 km} \times \frac{10^3 \, \text{m}}{1 \, \text{km}} \times \frac{10^3 \, \text{mm}}{1 \, \text{m}} = 5 \times 10^3 \times 10^3 \, \text{mm}[/katex]
Simplify to get the final answer: [katex]\boxed{5 \times 10^6 \, \text{mm}}[/katex]
