10) A shower pipe at the beach that is 10 cm in diameter carries water (density 1000 kg/m3 ) up a height of 2.0 m, at which point the pipe narrows to 5 cm and continues another 0.50 m up before the water squires out of the pipe 2.5 m above where it started. Ignore viscosity. a) If the water moves at 1.5 m/s in the wider part of the pipe, what is its speed in the narrower part of...
