Use continuity: Volume rate is constant because water is incompressible v1A1 = v2A2
v2 = v1A1/A2 = v1d12/d22 = 4v1
Bernoulli equation is P1 + ρgh1 + 1/2 ρv12 = P2 + ρgh2 + 1.2 ρv22
You know everything except P2. Solve for it. (h2 = 0)

asked 03/24/22Can anyone help me with this problem?
A pipe has a diameter of 24 cm at one end which is located at 1.5 m above the ground, and a diameter of 12 cm at the other end which is 4.0 m above the ground as shown below. Water is pumped at a pressure of 120,000 Pascals into the pipe at the ground level with a speed of 1.0 m/s. What is the water pressure as it exits from the other end? Assume that the density of water is 1,000 kg/m3 and g is 9.8 m/s2.) Hint: Determine first the speed at the exit and then use Bernoulli’s Equation.
It doesn't let me attach the picture sorry about that:((
