What is a streamline?
Think about the path of a leaf floating on a river.
What happens to fluid speed in a converging nozzle?
Consider how a hose works when you cover the end.
What is the effect of a converging nozzle on fluid velocity?
Think about how water sprays from a hose.
True or False: In steady flow, the time component of acceleration is zero.
Consider the definition of steady flow.
Given the velocity of a fluid at the entrance of a nozzle as 10 ft/s, calculate the acceleration at both the entrance and exit points where velocity triples.
Use the relationship between velocity and the area.
