Question 22
CENAT1 markNeeds review
A circular duct carrying water gradually contracts from a diameter of 30
to 15
. The figure (not drawn to scale) shows the arrangement of differential manometer attached to the duct.
When the water flows, the differential manometer shows a deflection of 8
of mercury (
). The values of specific gravity of mercury and water are 13.6 and 1.0, respectively. Consider the acceleration due to gravity,
. Assuming frictionless flow, the flow rate (in
, round off to 3 decimal places) through the duct is ________.Log in to check the answer
