A glass tube is inserted into a flowing stream of water with one opening directed upstream and the other end vertical. If the water velocity is 3 m/s, how high will the water rise in the vertical leg relative to the level of the water surface of the stream?

Answer:


h=0.46m

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Velocity of water
V=3m/s

Height=?

Generally, the equation for Water Velocity is mathematically given by


V=√(2gh)

Therefore Height h is given as


h=(v)/(2g)


h=(3^2)/(2*9.81)


h=0.46m
