$A$ wind with speed $50 \,m/s$ blows parallel to the roof of a house. The area of the roof is $300 \,m^2$. Assume that the pressure inside the house is atmospheric pressure. The density of air is $1.2 \,kg/m^3$. The magnitude of the force exerted by the wind on the roof will be:

  • A
    $1.5 \times 10^5 \,N$
  • B
    $3.0 \times 10^5 \,N$
  • C
    $4.5 \times 10^5 \,N$
  • D

$A$ wind with speed $40 \ m/s$ blows parallel to the roof of a house. The area of the roof is $250 \ m^2$. Assuming that the pressure inside the house is atmospheric pressure,the force exerted by the wind on the roof and the direction of the force will be $(\rho_{air} = 1.2 \ kg/m^3)$.

An ideal fluid of density $800 \; kg \cdot m^{-3}$ flows smoothly through a bent pipe (as shown in the figure) that tapers in cross-sectional area from $a$ to $\frac{a}{2}$. The pressure difference between the wide and narrow sections of the pipe is $4100 \; Pa$. At the wider section,the velocity of the fluid is $\frac{\sqrt{x}}{6} \; m \cdot s^{-1}$. Find the value of $x$. (Given $g = 10 \; m \cdot s^{-2}$)

An aeroplane of mass $3 \times 10^4\,kg$ and total wing area of $120\,m^2$ is in a level flight at some height. The difference in pressure between the upper and lower surfaces of its wings in kilopascals is........... $kPa$ $(g=10\,m/s^2)$

Glycerine of density $1.25 \times 10^3 \ kg/m^3$ is flowing in a conical-shaped horizontal pipe. The cross-sectional area of the pipe at its two ends is $10 \ cm^2$ and $5 \ cm^2$ respectively. The pressure difference between the two ends is $3 \ N/m^2$. The rate of flow of the liquid in the pipe is:
