Question: Water flows through a pipe as shown with a diameter, d1, of 0.1 meters. After the water flows past a Pitot tube, the pipe diameter

Water flows through a pipe as shown with a diameter, d1, of 0.1 meters. After the water flows past a Pitot tube, the pipe diameter changes to a diameter, d2, of 0.6 meters. The pressure of the water in the pipe of diameter d1 is given by the height of water, hf, of 2 meters while the pressure at the stagnation point is given by the height of water in the Pitot tube, hs, of 4 meters. What is the pressure of the water in the pipe of diameter d2 in kiloPascals? First, solve for the pressure and velocity in the pipe of diameter d1. Then, solve for the velocity and pressure in the pipe of diameter d2
