Water flows through a pipe with radius 5.00 cm at the rate 0.08 m/s into an office building of height 10.00 m. The radius of the pipe tapers down to 2.00 cm at the top of the building. a. Use equation of continuity to find the flow speed at the top of the building. b. If the pressure in the pipe at the bottom of the building is 300000 Pa, use Bernoulli's equation to find the pressure in the pipe at the top of the building.
