Answer:
The velocity at discharge is 100.46 ft/s
Explanation:
Given that,
Pressure = 68 psi
We need to calculate the pressure in pascal
[tex]P=68\times6894.74\ Pa[/tex]
[tex]P=468842.32\ Pa[/tex]
We need to calculate the velocity
Let the velocity is v.
Using Bernoulli equation
[tex]P=\dfrac{1}{2}\rho v^2[/tex]
[tex]468842.32=0.5\times1000\times v^2[/tex]
[tex]v=\sqrt{\dfrac{468842.32}{0.5\times1000}}[/tex]
[tex]v=30.62\ m/s[/tex]
Now, We will convert m/s to ft/s
[tex]v =30.62\times3.281[/tex]
[tex]v=100.46\ ft/s[/tex]
Hence, The velocity at discharge is 100.46 ft/s
