A water intake at a reservoir has a radius of 0.486 m. The water flows in at a speed of 0.405 m/s. At the generator building, 183 m below the intake point, the water flows out at a speed of 9.45 m/s.
(a) What is the radius of the outlet?
(b) What is the difference in pressure between the intake and outlet?
