1.A tube of radius 5 cm is connected to tube of radius 1 cm. Water is forced through the tube at a rate of 10 liters/min. The pressure in the 5 cm tube is 1×10^5 Pa. The density of water is 1000 kg/m3. Assume that the water is nonviscous and uncompressible.
What is the velocity of the water in the 5 cm radius tube?
2. Flow rate of liquid = Velocity X Area.
3. I believe the units are messing me up. I am not sure about the 10 liters/min. but my equation: 10 liters/min = (1000)x(5^2)(∏)(V) I am not coming up with the correct answers, and don't know if this is even close to the right equation. can somone point me in the right direction?
