Solve the Problem $\mathrm { ft } / \mathrm { s }$

question 515

Multiple Choice

Solve the problem.
-The velocity of water $\mathrm { ft } / \mathrm { s }$ at the point of discharge is given by $\mathrm { v } = 12.80 \sqrt { \mathrm { P } }$ , where $\mathrm { P }$ is the pressure lb/in ${ } ^ { 2 }$ of the water at the point of discharge. Find the rate of change of the velocity with respect to pressure if the pressure is $20.00 \mathrm { lb } / \mathrm { in } ^ { 2 }$ .

• A) \(2.86 \mathrm { ft } / \mathrm { s }\) per \(\mathrm { lb } / \mathrm { in } ^ { 2 }\)
• B) \(28.62 \mathrm { ft } / \mathrm { s }\) per lb/in 2
• C) \(1.4311 \mathrm { ft } / \mathrm { s }\) per \(\mathrm { lb } / \mathrm { in } ^ { 2 }\)
• D) \(0.3200 \mathrm { ft } / \mathrm { s }\) per \(\mathrm { lb } / \mathrm { in } ^ { 2 }\)
