Bernoulli's Theorem
Apparatus
Procedure:
1.Make sure that all the components are
connected and operate the supply pump.
2.Adjust the height of the water in the inlet
tank and this is the same as that in the
first tube of the manometer panel.
3.Adjust the water level in the outlet tank
by the swivelling drain pipe and as that is
the same as that in the last tube of the
manometer panel.
4.Take reading of all the manometer (1-12).
5.Take the time required for collecting
certain volume of water in the measuring
tank (use a stopwatch).
6.Note down the reading in the worksheet.
Calculation & Results:

45.7 x 10-2 29 x 10-2 0.002 5.51

Q = 0.002 / 5.51 = 3.629 x 10-4

V1 = Q / A1 = 3.629 x 10-4 / 625 x 10-6 = 0.580 m/s
Meas. (p1-pi) =ρg(h –hi)= 1000 x 9.81(0.58 – 0.58) = 0 Pa
Cal. (p1-pi) =ρ/2 (vi2 – v12) = 1000/2 (0.582 – 0.582) = 0 Pa
Cal. hi =h1–(vi2–v12)/2g =0.373 –(0.582 – 0.582) / 2 x 9.81
= 0.373 m
