Question 1

What is the primary characteristic of radial velocity?

  • It moves outward
  • It moves inward
  • It is always zero

💡 Hint: Think about how water sprays from a garden hose.

Question 2

True or False: In steady flow, acceleration can be influenced by time.

  • True
  • False

💡 Hint: Reflect on what we know steady flow means.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A fluid with an initial velocity of 12 ft/s enters a converging nozzle where the cross-sectional area is reduced. If the velocity at the exit is recorded as 36 ft/s, calculate the acceleration.

💡 Hint: How can you break this down into simpler components?

Question 2

In a steady flow through a circular pipe, the diameter at entry is 2m, and at exit is 1m. If the fluid flows at 5 m/s at entrance, determine the exit velocity and acceleration.

💡 Hint: Remember to consider area and how it relates to velocity changes!
