Fluid Mechanics and Hydraulics

  1. A nozzle is so shaped that the average flow velocity changes linearly from 1.5 m/s at the beginning to 15 m/s at its end in a distance of 0.375 m. The magnitude of the convective acceleration (in m/s²) at the end of the nozzle is _________
    1. 5.5 m/s²
    2. 55 m/s²
    3. 45 m/s²
    4. 4.5 m/s²
Correct Option: B

54
