Problem

In a horizontal pipeline completely filled with water (ρ=1000 kg/m3\rho = 1000\,\text{kg/m}^3), the internal diameter decreases from 0.10 m to 0.050 m. At the wider section, the gauge pressure is 220 kPa and the speed of the water is 1.5 m/s. Calculate the gauge pressure in the narrower section. Answer to the nearest kilopascal.
