A container of water has a cross-sectional area of A=0.1m2 . A piston sits top of the water (see be following figure). There is a spout located 0.15 m from the bottom of tank, open to the atmosphere, and a stream of water exits the spout. The cross sectional area of the spat is As=7.0104m2 . (a) What is the velocity of the water as it leaves the spout? (b) If the opening of the spout is located 1.5 m above the grand, how far from be pout does water hit the floor? Ignore friction and dissipative forces.

Considering the magnitude of typical arterial blood pressures, why are mercury rather than water manometers used for these measurements?
Dry air is primarily composed of nitrogen. In a classroom demonstration, a physics instructor pours 2.00 L of liquid nitrogen into a beaker. After the nitrogen evaporates, how much volume does it occupy if its density is equal to that of the dry air at sea level? Liquid nitrogen has a density of 808 kg/m3.
(a) A 75.0-kg man floats in freshwater with 3.00% of his volume above water when his lungs are empty, and 5.00% of his volume above water when his lungs are full. Calculate the volume of air he inhales—called his lung capacity—in liters. (b) Does this lung volume seem reasonable?
(a) Using Bernoulli's equation, show that be measured fluid speed v for a pitot tube, like the one in figure 14.32(b), is given by v=( 2gh)1/h , where h is be height of be manometer fluid, p' is the density of the manometer fluid, p is the density of the moving fluid, and g is be acceleration due to gravity. (Note that v is indeed proportional to the square root of h, as stated in text) (b) Calculate v for moving air if a mercury manometer's h is 0.200 m. Figure 14.32 Measurement of fluid speed on Bernoulli’s principle. (a) A manometer is connected to two tubes close together and small enough not to disturb the flow. Tube 1 is open at the end facing the flow. A dead spot having zero speed is created there. Tube 2 has an opening on the side, so the fluid has a speed v across; thus, pressure there drops. The difference in pressure at the manometer is 12v22 , so h is proportional to . 12v22 (b) This type of velocity measuring device is a Prandtl tube, also known as a pitot tube.
(a) As blood passes through the capillary bed in an organ, the capillaries join to form venules (small veins).

(b) How many capillaries are involved if their average diameter is 10.0 m?
