Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A tank has a circular cross-section with a diameter of 1 meter and water flows in at a rate of 0.15 m³/s. What is the average velocity of water in the tank?

💡 Hint: Ensure to use the cross-sectional area formula for a circle in your calculations.

Question 2

Given incompressible flow through varying pipe diameters, what steps would you take to analyze changes in flow velocity?

💡 Hint: Remember, density cancels out when dealing with incompressible fluids.
