2) Problem 2.5 (from textbook) 2.5 For steady flow through a conical nozzle of length L, the velocity in the direction of flow, x direction, is approximately x₁ - U₂ (1-2) Vx = (2.10.4) where Uo is the velocity at the entrance to the nozzle. (a) Determine the acceleration in the x direction at x = 1 m for U₁ = 5 ms¹ and L=2 m. (b) The velocity given by Equation (2.10.4) is approxi- mate. Identify two locations along the nozzle where the velocity will not be correct.
