It consists of two tubes, one of which is open to the fluid and the other of which is closed. The open tube is exposed to the fluid, and the closed tube is not. The pressure in the open tube is equal to the static pressure of the fluid, while the pressure in the closed tube is equal to the stagnation pressure of the fluid. The difference between these two pressures is equal to the dynamic pressure of the fluid, which is proportional to the square of the fluid velocity.<\/p>\n<p>The other options are incorrect because:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>A pressure gauge is used to measure pressure.<\/li>\n<li>A flow meter is used to measure the flow rate of a fluid.<\/li>\n<li>A discharge meter is used to measure the volume of fluid that flows through a pipe in a given amount of time.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[amp_mcq option1=&#8221;pressure&#8221;
