Review Questions can be found and worked-out solutions to each of the Practice Problems.
Additional materials including supplemental problems and projects.

Generally, answers to end-of-chapter Practice Problems are rounded-off to reflect the precision of
d
the data and/or the accuracy of the assumed factors in the problems. These answers are also listed
in Appendix G of the text for students to use in checking their work. (The authors have made every

Solutions to Practice Problems

1. P = 0.43 x h (Equation 2-2b)
en
P = 0.43 x 50 ft = 22 psi at the bottom of the reservoir
P = 0.43 x (50 -30) = 0.43 x 20 ft = 8.6 psi above the bottom

2. h = 0.1 x P = 0.1 x 50 = 5 m (Equation 2-3a)
iu
3. Depth of water above the valve: h = (78 m -50 m) + 2 m = 30 m
P = 9.8 x h = 9.8 x 30 = 294 kPa ≈ 290 kPa (Equation 2-2a)
s2
4. h = 2.3 x P = 2.3 x 50 = 115 ft, in the water main
h = 115 - 40 = 75 ft
P = 0.43 x 75 = 32 psi, 40 ft above the main (Equation 2-2b)
47
5. Gage pressure P = 30 + 9.8 x 1 = 39.8 kPa ≈ 40 kPa
Pressure head (in tube) = 0.1 x 40 kPa = 4 m

6. Q= A x V (Eq. 2-4), therefore V = Q/A
??
A = πD2/4 = π (0.3)2/4 = 0.0707 m2
100L/s x 1 m3/1000L=0.1 m3/s
V = 0.1 m3/s 0.707m2 = 1.4 m/s
??
7. Q = (500 gal/min) x (1 min/60 sec) x (1 ft3/7.5 gal) = 1.11 cfs
A = Q/V (from Eq. 2-4)
A = 1.11 ft3/sec /1.4 ft/sec = 0.794 ft2
A = πD2/4, therefore D = √4A/π = √(4)(0.794)/π = 1 ft = 12 in.
??
8. Q=A1 x V1 = A2 x V2 (Eq.2-5)
Since A = πD2/4, we can write
D12 xV1 = D22 xV2 and V2 =V1 x (D12 /D22)
?
In the constriction, V2 = (2 m/s) x (4) = 8 m/s
