Air at 20°C flows through the tube as shown in the figure. Assume that air is an ideal fluid. The density of air is 1.20 kg/m³, the density of mercury is 13600 kg/m³. Suppose that d₁ = 3 mm and d₂ = 1.5 cm.

(a) What is the air speed v₁ at point 1?

(b) What is the air speed v₂ at point 2?

A venturi tube is a tube with a constriction in it. Pressure ina venturi tube can be measured by attaching a U-shaped fluid-filleddevice to the venturi tube as shown in the figure above.The densityof air is 1.20 kg/m³ and the density of water is 1000kg/m³. Use g = 10 m/s².

(a) If the fluid in the U is water, and there is a 10.0 cmdifference between the water levels on the two sides, what is themagnitude of the pressure difference between points 1 and 2 in theventuri tube? (Pa)

(b) The venturi tube has air flowing through it. If thecross-sectional area of the venturi tube is 2 times larger at point 1 than it is atpoint 2, what is the air speed at point 2? (m/s)

The Bernoulli effect can have important consequences for the design of buildings. For example, wind can blow around a skyscraper at remarkably high speed, creating low pressure. The higher atmospheric pressure in the still air inside the buildings can cause windows to pop out. As originally constructed, the John Hancock Building in Boston popped windowpanes that fell many stories to the sidewalk below.

(a) Suppose a horizontal wind blows with a speed of outside a large pane of plate glass with dimensions . Assume the density of the air to be constant at . The air inside the building is at atmospheric pressure. What is the total force exerted by air on the windowpane?

(b) What If? If a second skyscraper is built nearby, the airspeed can be especially high where wind passes through the narrow separating between the buildings. Solve part (a) again with a wind speed of , twice as high.
