Try this :

If the water stands still then the pressure is the same throughout.

If the water is moving THEN it has kinetic energy ... which comes from somewhere.

Thus the faster its moving, the lower the pressure.

And the smaller the tube - in order to move the same amount of water (your condition) the faster it must move.

How does pressure change with pipe diameter?

As pipe diameter increases, pressure decreases. This is because the same amount of fluid is flowing through a larger area, resulting in lower pressure.


How can one calculate pressure from flow rate?

To calculate pressure from flow rate, you can use the formula: Pressure Flow Rate x Resistance. The resistance is typically represented by the diameter and length of the pipe through which the fluid is flowing. By knowing the flow rate and resistance, you can determine the pressure of the fluid in the system.


What is wrong with the statement Voltage flows through a circuit?

Voltage is the force that causes current to flow through a circuit. In a similar way it isn't pressure that flows through a pipe - it is the fluid flowing through a pipe due to a difference in pressure at the entry and exit of the pipe that causes the fluid to flow through, no pressure flowing through a pipe.


How do you measure water flowing through 300mm diameter pipes?

Same as you would in inches 3.14159265 and PSI have to be known

Voltage is the pressure that moves the electrons (current) through a circuit.


What is the pressure at the bottom of a mountain as water flows through different size pipes?

If the water is flowing by gravity there is NO hydrostatic pressureIf you want to find the static pressure under no flow conditions take the constant .433 and times it by the height


How can I calculate the pressure in a pipe based on the flow rate and diameter of the pipe?

To calculate the pressure in a pipe based on the flow rate and diameter, you can use the formula for pressure drop in a pipe, which is given by the equation: Pressure (4 flow rate viscosity) / (pi diameter2) Where: Pressure is the pressure drop in the pipe Flow rate is the rate at which fluid flows through the pipe Viscosity is the viscosity of the fluid Diameter is the diameter of the pipe By plugging in the values for flow rate, viscosity, and diameter into this formula, you can calculate the pressure in the pipe.

Why do rockets have a Diverging Nozzle at the exit?

To increase the exhaust velocity. +++ Pressure, not velocity. A gas flowing through a divergent nozzle gains pressure at the cost of speed.


What is the force or pressure of electricity and is compared to the amount of water pressure in a hose?

Electricity is measured in amperes and voltage, while water pressure is usually measured in pounds per square inch (psi). The force of electricity depends on the amount of current flowing through a circuit, similar to how the pressure in a hose depends on the rate of water flow and the diameter of the hose. Both can cause damage or be dangerous if not properly controlled or managed.


Why does an ideal fluid move faster through a pipe with decreasing diameter?

The pressure within the fluid decreases


A 1.0 m length of metal wire is connected to a battery and a current of flows through it. What is the diameter of the wire The resistivity of the metal is?

To calculate the diameter of the wire, we would need to know the resistivity of the metal, the current flowing through the wire, and the potential difference across it. Without this information, we cannot determine the diameter solely based on the length of the wire.
