1. Water flows in a vertical pipe of 0.15-m diameter at a rate of 0.2 m³/s and a pressure of 200 kPa at an elevation of 25 m. Determine the velocity head and pressure head at elevations of 20 and 55 m.

2. Draw the energy line and the hydraulic grade line for the flow of Problem 3.83.

Problem 3.83

Water flows from a large tank as shown in Fig. P3.83. Atmospheric pressure is 14.5 psia, and the vapor pressure is 1.60 psia. If viscous effects are neglected, at what height, h, will cavitation begin? To avoid cavitation, should the value of D₁ be increased or decreased? To avoid cavitation, should the value of D2 be increased or decreased? Explain.
