This document contains 4 examples involving calculating fluid speed using principles of fluid dynamics. The examples include calculating the pressure difference and force on a roof from wind, the exit speed of water from a hose lifted above the ground, the exit speed of water through a hole in a dam, and the exit speed of water through a hole poked in a Styrofoam cylinder filled with water. Diagrams or equations are not provided, only descriptions of the scenarios.

blow over the roof with a speed of 50 m/s. Find the pressure difference between in- and outside the house and the force that acts on the roof? :Example A hose lying on the ground has water coming out of it at a speed of 5.4 meters per second. You lift the nozzle of the hose to a height of 1.3 meters above the ground. At what speed does the water now come out of the hose? :Example A dam holds back the water in a lake. If the dam has a small hole 1.4 meters below the surface of the lake, at what speed does water exit the hole? :Example A Styrofoam cylinder, filled with water, sits on a table. You then poke a small hole through the side of the cylinder, 20 cm below the top of the water surface. What is the speed of the fluid emerging from the hole? :Example
