Document Summary

So the flow rate is proportional to which the area in which the fluid is flowing through. So high velocity at a smaller diamter is going to the same flow as the slow velocity in the large diameter. So when you have a pipe like this with two different diameters. When we have a velocity here which is small from the thick we need to have an acelatory - so there needs to be a force for there to be accelator. The accelration will have the same diredction as the net force. The pressure difference , which can be found at different places. When we do have a prssure issues, which side is te pressure higher on. When you hae a force pointing to the right via pressure it means we have to have a pressure that is higher on the left than the right in order for teh fluid to move to the right.
