Question:
Assume that the flow around the long circular cylinder of Fig. P6.59 is nonviscous and incompressible. Two pressures, \(p_{1}\) and \(p_{2}\), are measured on the surface of the cylinder, as illustrated. It is proposed that the free-stream velocity, \(U\), can be related to the pressure difference \(\Delta p=p_{1}-p_{2}\) by the equation
\[ U=C \sqrt{\frac{\Delta p}{ho}} \]
where \(ho\) is the fluid density. Determine the value of the constant \(C\). Neglect body forces.
