No, THAT code doesn't work... but this code does:

d = 2*10^-2;
A = d^2 Pi/4;
Po = 5*101325;
Pa = 1*101325;
rho = 1000;
V0 = 5*10^-3;
gamma = 114/100;
sol = V /.
    NDSolve[{V'[t] == A Sqrt[2 (Po (V0/V[t])^gamma - Pa)/rho],
       V[0] == V0}, {V}, {t, 0, 9}, MaxSteps -> 1000000,
      AccuracyGoal -> 10, PrecisionGoal -> 10][[1]];
v[t_] := Chop[sol[t]]
Plot[v[t]*1000, {t, 0, 9}, PlotRange -> All]
Grid[Table[{t, v[t]}, {t, 0, 9, 1}]]

Do you not see the difference? For instance,

d = 2*10^-2

1/50

is very different from your

d = 2*10 - 2
