9. The formula for calculating the discharge coefficient (Cv) in a pipe is:
- Cv = Q_actual / Q_theoretical
- Cv = Q_theoretical / Q_actual
- Cv = A_actual / A_theoretical
- Cv = A_theoretical / A_actual
Answer: A) Cv = Q_actual / Q_theoretical
Explanation:
The discharge coefficient (Cv) for a pipe relates the actual flow rate (Q_actual) to the theoretical flow rate (Q_theoretical)
