Answer

(a) $53m/s$ (b) $19cm$

Work Step by Step

(a) We know that $\frac{\Delta V}{\Delta t}=Av$ This can be rearranged as: $v=\frac{\frac{\Delta V}{\Delta t}}{\frac{1}{4}\pi d^2}$ We plug in the known values to obtain: $v=\frac{\frac{1.5L/s}{1000m^3}}{\frac{1}{4}\pi(0.0060m)^2}$ $v=53m/s$ (b) The height can be determined as follows: $P_2-P_1=\frac{1}{2}\rho v_1^2$ $\implies P_2-P_1=\frac{1}{2}(1.29)(53)^2=1.815KPa$ Now $h=\frac{P_2-P_1}{\rho_wg}$ We plug in the known values to obtain: $h=\frac{1.815KPa}{(1000Kg/m^3)(9.81m/s^2)}$ $h=0.19m=19cm$
