Q. A pitot-static tube is used to estimate the velocity of an incompressible fluid of density 1 kg/m³. If the pressure difference measured by the tube is 200 N/m², the velocity of the fluid, assuming the pitot-tube coefficient to be 1.0, is                   m/s.

Sol:

Given that, density = 1 kg/m3

Pressure difference (ΔP) = 200 N/m2

pitot tube co-efficient = 1.0
