A horizontal pipe line carries water in a streamline flow.At a point along the tube where the cross-sectional area is $10^{-2}$ $m^2$, the water velocity is $2$ $ms^{^{-1}}$ and the pressure is $8000 $ $Pa$. The pressure of water at another point where the cross-sectional area is $0.5$ $\times 10^{-2}$ $m^2$ is ........  $Pa$

Area at other point is half. So, speed will be double.

Now, $p_{1}+\frac{1}{2} \rho v_{1}^{2}=p_{2}+\frac{1}{2} \rho v_{2}^{2}$

$\therefore p_{2}=p_{1}+\frac{1}{2} \rho v_{1}^{2}-v_{2}^{2}$

$=(8000)+\frac{1}{2} \times 1000(4-16)$

$=2000 P a$
