Homework Statement
A can of Coca‐Cola has a small pinhole leak in it. The Coke sprays vertically
into the air at a height of 0.5 m. What is the pressure inside the can?
ρ = 1.11 g/mL
Homework Equations
Bernoulli: p1/ρ + (v1^2)/2 +g*z1 = p2/ρ + (v2^2)/2 +g*z2
The Attempt at a Solution
I've assumed:
z1=0, z2= 0.5
p2= atmospheric = 0 (gage)
v2=0
This simplifies bernoulli's to p1 = (g*z2-(v1^2)/2)/ρ
However v1 is still unknown and i have no way to solve for it
