Answer to Question #31212 in Molecular Physics | Thermodynamics for Jose Ponce

Question

water at a gauge pressure of 3.8 atm at street flows into an office building at a speed of 0.60 m/s through a pipe 50 mm in diameter. The pipe tapers down to 2.6 cm in diameter by the top flooe, 18m above the street, where a faucet has been left open. calculate the flow velocity and the gauge pressure in such a pipe at the top floor.
