Best Answer: The events are called slalom and giant slalom. Slalom (SL) - gates very close together vertically and horizontally. Quick short turns required. Some gates are vertically in a row so the skier needs to very rapidly maneuver the skis right to left. This is called a flush.
Best Answer: Venturies and Orifice plates are widely used in industries to measure the flow rate of gases and liquids. The working principle is simple and flow is measured using the differential pressure principle.Even for a wind to blow, there has to be a low pressure and a high pressure.eport Abuse. Venturi meters are used to measure the speed of a fluid's flow through a pipe. I don't know about in cars, but I think an important industrial application would be to monitor the flow rates of chemicals through the pipes of a chemical plant.
A gas meter is a specialized flow meter, used to measure the volume of fuel gases such as natural gas and propane. Gas meters are used at residential, commercial, and industrial buildings that consume fuel gas supplied by a gas utility. Gases are more difficult to measure than liquids, as measured volumes are highly affected by temperature and pressure.
