Water flows through a Venturi meter, as shown in Figure below. The pressure of the water in the pipe supports columns of water that differ in height by 1 in.
(a) Determine the difference in pressure between points a and b, in lbf/in.2
(b) Does the pressure increase (in this case type 1 as the answer)or decrease (type 0) in the direction of flow?
The atmospheric pressure is 14.6 lbf/in.2, the specific volume of water is 0.01604 ft3/lb, and the acceleration of gravity is g = 32.0 ft/s2.

1.) A liquid of density 1390 km/m^3 flows steadily through a pipe of varying diameter and height. At Location 1 along the pipe, the flow speed is 9.31 m/s and the pipe d1 diameter is 10.3cm . At Location 2, the pipe diameter d2 is 17.5 cm . At Location 1, the pipe is triangle y= 9.31m higher than it is at Location 2. Ignoring viscosity, calculate the difference between the fluid pressure at Location 2 and the fluid pressure...
