I am still having troubles getting my head around this. The problem is that any time I've used the Bernoulli equation, its only looking at one tube (like a Laval nozzle where one tube gets smaller), but this question has two tubes feeding into one. So this equation:
would need a p3 and v3...
I don't know if the original problem is that complicated. Let's say the source of air is two identical air compressors set to the same settings, so the PSI, the velocities, and the volume is the exact same for both tubes.
Homework Statement
hello, I have a problem that I couldn't find a clear answer to. Attached is a diagram of a related problem that explains the problem
Air traveling through two tubes with the same direction have the same PSI (say 75). If you merge the two tubes into a tube with the same...
Thank you for your reply Steam King. Based on the formula, I got a v2 value equal to 300,002 km/h or 83,330 m/s. Thats way over the Mach 1, so how would the air behave in this scenario?
Homework Statement
Hello, I'm having troubles figuring out what seems to be a pretty simple physics question.
Attached is an image of the problem. what I am trying to solve is how a funnel effects the speed of air. The input velocity (v1) is 30 km/h, and I am trying to find the output velocity...
