Answer:
v = 154.703 ft/s
Explanation:
given data
throat to inlet area ratio = 0.8
static pressure at the throat p = 2100 lb/ft²
pressure p1 = 2116 lb/ft²
density = 0.002377 slug/ft³
solution
we get here velocity that is express as
v = [tex]\sqrt{\frac{2(p1-p)}{\rho (\frac{A1}{At})^2 -1 }}[/tex] .................1
put here calculate and we get
v = [tex]\sqrt{\frac{2(2116-2110)}{0.002377 (\frac{1}{0.8})^2 -1 }}[/tex]
solve it we get
v = 154.703 ft/s
