General Studies · Fluid Mechanics
A liquid flows downwards through a tapered vertical pipe. The diameter at Section 1 is twice that at Section 2 and the pressures at Sections 1 and 2 are equal. Assume zero loss of energy between the two sections. If the vertical distance between Sections 1 and 2 is 1.5 m, the velocity of fluid passing at Section 2 is approximately: (Take g = 9.81 m/s2)
