A pitot tube is a device which is used to measure the velocity of a fluid by comparing the stagnation, p0 , static pressure p and dynamic pressure within the fluid. The relation between these pressures is given by the equation p0 = p + ½ (tho) V^2 where (tho) is the density of the fluid and V is the velocity of the fluid. If p is 500 +/- 25 kPa, p0 is measured to be 765 +/- 35 kPa and (tho) is 671 +/- 3.8 kg/m3 what is the velocity of the fluid? Be sure to include the uncertainty in your answer.
