question 86

Multiple Choice

The narrow section is 15.0 m from the wide section and the narrow section is higher than the wide section. The velocity of the fluid in the wide section of the pipe is 6.00 m/s and the velocity of the fluid in the narrow section of pipe is 9.00 m/s. The pressure of the fluid in the wide section is 250 kPa. What is the pressure in the narrow section of the pipe? (density of the fluid is 1,000 kg/m³)

• A) 217 kPa
• B) 205 kPa
• C) 180 kPa
• D) 177 kPa
• E) 157 kPa
