It is proposed to determine the flow rate through a pipeline from pressure measurements at two points of different cross-sectional areas. No energy transfers are involved \(\left(q=w_{s}=0\right)\) and potential differences are negligible. Show that for the steady one-dimensional, frictionless flow of an incompressible fluid, the flow rate can be represented by
