$A$ horizontal pipe carries water in a streamline flow. At a point along the pipe, where the cross-sectional area is $A_1$, the velocity of water is $V_1$ and the pressure is $P_1$. What is the pressure of water at another point where the cross-sectional area is $A_2$?

  • A
    $P_1 - \frac{\rho V_1^2}{2A_2^2} (A_2^2 - A_1^2)$
  • B
    $P_1 + \frac{\rho V_1^2}{2A_2^2} (A_2^2 - A_1^2)$
  • C
    $P_1 \rho V_1^2 (A_1^2 - A_2^2)$
  • D
    $P_1 + \frac{\rho V_1^2}{2} (1 - \frac{A_1^2}{A_2^2})$

Assertion $(A)$: The upper surface of the wing of an aeroplane is made convex and the lower surface is made concave.
Reason $(R)$: The air currents at the top have smaller velocity and thus less pressure at the bottom than at the top.

Consider a water tank as shown in the figure. Its cross-sectional area is $0.4\, m^{2}$. The tank has an opening $B$ near the bottom whose cross-sectional area is $1\, cm^{2}$. $A$ load of $24\, kg$ is applied on the water at the top. When the height of the water level is $40\, cm$ above the bottom,the velocity of water coming out of the opening $B$ is $v\, ms^{-1}$. The value of $v$,to the nearest integer,is ......$m/s$.
