Question:
Two Pitot-static tubes are shown. The one on the top is used to measure the velocity of air, and it is connected to an air-water manometer as shown. The one on the bottom is used to measure the velocity of water, and it too is connected to an air-water manometer as shown. If the deflection h is the same for both manometers, then one can conclude that
(a) VA = Vw,
(b) VA > Vw, or
(c) VA < Vw.

I have been a tutor for the past 5 years. I have experience working with students in a variety of subject areas, including computer science, math, science, English, and history. I have also worked with students of all ages, from elementary school to college. In addition to my tutoring experience, I have a degree in education from a top university. This has given me a strong foundation in child development and learning theories, which I use to inform my tutoring practices.
I am patient and adaptable, and I work to create a positive and supportive learning environment for my students. I believe that all students have the ability to succeed, and it is my job to help them find and develop their strengths. I am confident in my ability to tutor students and help them achieve their academic goals.
