(N/A) The limitations of Bernoulli's equation are as follows:
$1$. The equation is valid only for incompressible fluids,meaning the density of the fluid remains constant.
$2$. It assumes the flow is steady,which means the velocity,pressure,and density at any point do not change with time.
$3$. It is applicable only to non-viscous (ideal) fluids,where internal friction or viscosity is neglected.
$4$. It assumes the flow is irrotational,meaning there is no net angular velocity of the fluid particles.
$5$. It does not account for energy loss due to friction or turbulence during the flow.

Water is flowing steadily through a horizontal tube of non-uniform cross-section. If the pressure of water is $4 \times 10^4 \ N/m^2$ at a point where the cross-section is $0.02 \ m^2$ and the velocity of flow is $2 \ m/s$,what is the pressure at a point where the cross-section reduces to $0.01 \ m^2$?

The figure shows a liquid of given density flowing steadily in a horizontal tube of varying cross-section. The cross-sectional areas at $A$ is $1.5 \, cm^2$,and at $B$ is $25 \, mm^2$. If the speed of the liquid at $B$ is $60 \, cm/s$,then find $(P_A - P_B)$ in $Pa$. (Given: $P_A$ and $P_B$ are liquid pressures at points $A$ and $B$ respectively. Density $\rho = 1000 \, kg/m^3$. $A$ and $B$ are on the axis of the tube.)

The reading of a pressure gauge connected to a closed tap is $3.5 \times 10^5 \, N/m^2$. When the tap is opened,the reading of the pressure gauge falls to $3.0 \times 10^5 \, N/m^2$. The velocity of water is ........ $m/s$.
