$A$ horizontal pipe carries water in a streamlined flow. At a point along the pipe,where the cross-sectional area is $10 \text{ cm}^2$,the velocity of water is $1 \text{ ms}^{-1}$ and the pressure is $2000 \text{ Pa}$. What is the pressure of water at another point where the cross-sectional area is $5 \text{ cm}^2$ (in $Pa$)? [Density of water $= 1000 \text{ kgm}^{-3}$]

$A$ venturimeter has a pipe diameter of $4 \,cm$ and a throat diameter of $2 \,cm$. The velocity of water in the pipe section is $10 \,m/s$. The pressure drop between the pipe section and the throat section is (use density of water $= 1000 \,kg/m^3$):

Give the formula for the measurement of the velocity of a fluid in the broader part of a venturi-meter.

$A$ liquid of density $600 \text{ kg/m}^3$ is flowing steadily in a tube of varying cross-section. The cross-section at a point $A$ is $1.0 \text{ cm}^2$ and that at $B$ is $20 \text{ mm}^2$. Both the points $A$ and $B$ are in the same horizontal plane, and the speed of the liquid at $A$ is $10 \text{ cm/s}$. The difference in pressures at $A$ and $B$ points is . . . . . . $\text{Pa}$.
