fluid dynamics - Bernoulli Experiment- why is the pressure on the left greater?




figure


Is the Pressure $P_2$ caused by a reaction force to the fluid-fluid collision, or is it the result of the collisions of the water molecules with the walls at the neck of this experiment. The part which confuses me is that $P_2$ needs to be less than $P_1 $but $P_2$ is exerted over a longer distance and the pressure exerted by fluids is calculated by $hdg$. Is there a reason why $P_2$ is less than $P_1$?

Understanding Stagnation point in pitot fluid

What is stagnation point in fluid mechanics. At the open end of the pitot tube the velocity of the fluid becomes zero.But that should result...
