Question: Water flows in a streamlined manner through a capillary tube of radius a, the pressure difference being P and the rate of flow Q. If the radius is reduced to a/2 and the pressure increased to 2P, the rate of flow becomes
Options:
A) 9.4 m
B) 4.9 m
C) 0.49 m
D) 0.94 m
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: D
Solution:
Given,
therefore
therefore
Since both tubes are connectedin series, hence pressure difference across combination,
therefore 1 =
therefore
