An incompressible liquid flows through a straight horizontal pipe. Friction of the fluid within the pipe causes a small amount of heat to be transferred from the fluid; to compensate, flow work must be done on the fluid to move it through the system (so W(dot)fl is greater than zero. a) How are V(dot)in and V(dot)out related, where V(dot) is the volumetric flow rate of the liquid? (Remember, fluid is incompressible) b) How must the pressures of Pin and Pout...
