A low-speed subsonic wind tunnel has a nozzle an inlet area which is 15 times the throat area. A device is connected to the throat and inlet, which has a mercury inside. The pressure and temperature in the throat section are 1 atm and 290 K, respectively. What is the height difference between the two columns of mercury when the throat section velocity is 80 m/s? Assume incompressible flow, and the specific weight of mercury is 1.33 x 10^5 N/m^3.

A low-speed subsonic wind tunnel has a nozzle an inlet area which is 15 times the
throat area. A device is connected to the throat and inlet, which has a mercury
inside. The pressure and temperature in the throat section are 1 atm and 290 K,
respectively. What is the height difference between the two columns of mercury
when the throat section velocity is 80 m/s? Assume incompressible flow, and the
specific weight of mercury is 1.33 x 10^5 N/m^3.

A Venturi tube narrows down from the inlet section to the throat. The inlet is 5
ft^2 while the throat area is half of the inlet. What is the rate of flow of water
when the change in pressure is 0.85 atm? (Use English Units)
