Water is used as the manometric liquid in a pitot tube mounted in an aircraft to measure air speed. If the maximum difference in height between the liquid columns is `0.1 m,` what is the maximum air speed that can be measured? Density of air `d_("dir")=1.3kg//m^(3)`

To solve the problem of finding the maximum air speed that can be measured using a pitot tube with water as the manometric liquid, we can use the formula for the velocity of fluid flow: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the given values:** - Maximum height difference (h) = 0.1 m - Density of water (ρ_water) = 1000 kg/m³ (standard value) - Density of air (ρ_air) = 1.3 kg/m³ ...
