Question

Water enters a nozzle with a velocity of 0.8 m/s and exits with a velocity of 5 m/s. The nozzle entrance diameter is 12 mm. Estimate the inlet pressure, if

the outlet pressure is 100 kPa and the water temperature is assumed to be the same at inlet and outlet as 300 K.Hint: you can consider the water incompressible. At 300 K, the density of water is 996.5 kg/m³.
