Calculate the mass flow rate of water in a pipe system where the diameter changes, given the densities and velocities at two different points.
💡 Hint: Remember that mass flow rate is density times velocity times area.
Using the Reynolds Transport Theorem, derive how momentum changes in a fluid system that enters and exits a control volume.
💡 Hint: Focus on how inflow and outflow sections relate to the changes in momentum.
