Summary:: Calculating the Pressure at a Reservoir
Hello all
I am struggling to calculate the pressure at a given point, i am getting all sort of strange answers and i was hoping someone could help.
The question is as follows:-
From this i have tried to draw a sketch of the problem (not sure if its correct though):-
I have tried to use the formula Q = vA and Bernoullis principle to calculate the pressure at P2 by doing the following:-
But i have been told that this is incorrect and the correct answer is -49.5 kN/m^2
Because the pressure and velocity at P1 is 0.
I was wondering if i could get someone elses view?
Thank you.
