A Venturi meter shows a pressure drop of 4000 Pa for water flowing through it. If the diameters of the inlet and outlet are 0.1 m and 0.03 m, respectively, calculate the flow rate Q. Assume standard gravity.
💡 Hint: Use the area formulas and the continuity equation.
Describe how varying fluid densities might affect the readings of a Venturi meter and propose a method to account for these variations in practical applications.
💡 Hint: Think about the principles of buoyancy and factors influencing density.
