An incompressible fluid at a pressure of 150 kPa (absolute) flows steadily through a two- dimensional channel with a velocity of 5 m/s as shown in the Figure. The channel has a 90o bend. The fluid leaves the channel with a pressure of 100 kPa (absolute) and linearly- varying velocity profile. vmax is four times vmin. The density of the fluid is 914.3 kg/m3. The velocity vmin, in m/s, is
