The length equation, I'm not sure if its correct. I was taught that when surface tension acts on a object, it acts on both the sides of an object. Therefore I multiplied 2 with the length of the cut.
Oh, I'm so sorry. I forgot to mention the length of the cut. Here's the complete question...
It states that total energy per unit volume remains constant throughout the flow.
Mathematically,
P + ρgh + 1/2 ρv2 = constant
P = pressure, ρ = density of fluid, h = height of fluid, v = velocity with fluid is flowing
Homework Statement
At a certain point in a pipeline, the velocity is 1 m/s and the gauge pressure is 3 x 105 N/m2. Find the gauge pressure at a second point in the line 20 m lower than the first if the cross-section at the second point is one half that at the first. The liquid in the pipe is...
