--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------1) The figure below shows a horizontal nozzle discharging into the atmosphere.

The inlet
has a bore area of 600 mm2 and the exit has a bore area of 200 mm2. Calculate the flow
rate when the inlet pressure is 400 Pa. Assume there is no energy loss and the density is
=1000 kg/m3.

2) Light oil, = 880 kg/m3 and = 0.015 kg/(ms), flows down a vertical 6 mm diameter
tube due to gravity only. Estimate the volume flow rate in m3/s if, (a) L = 1 m and (b) L=2
m. (c) Verify that the flow is laminar.
