Question
Consider a constant diameter tube with a u-tube mercury (SG = 13.6) manometer connected to it as shown.
Consider a constant diameter tube with a u-tube mercury (SG = 13.6) manometer connected to it as shown. Water is flowing downwards. The pressure at point 2 is different than the pressure at point 1 and the u-tube mercury (SG = 13.6) manometer is used to determine the difference P2 - P1. Are you able to use the Bernoulli equation to determine the pressure difference P2 - P1 for this flow? Explain your answer to part a? Speculate on why or why not the Bernoulli equation is not valid for this problem.
