Two horizontal pipes of different diamet...

Two horizontal pipes of different diameters are connected together and water is allowed to flow through them. The speed of water in the first pipe is 5 m/s and the pressure is `1.5 xx 10^4 N//m^2?` What will be the speed and pressure of water in the second pipe? The diameters of first and second pipes are 2 cm and 4 cm, respectively.

To solve the problem of finding the speed and pressure of water in the second pipe, we will use the principle of conservation of mass (continuity equation) and Bernoulli's equation. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify Given Values:** - Speed in the first pipe, \( V_1 = 5 \, \text{m/s} \) - Pressure in the first pipe, \( P_1 = 1.5 \times 10^4 \, \text{N/m}^2 \) - Diameter of the first pipe, \( D_1 = 2 \, \text{cm} = 0.02 \, \text{m} \) ...
