Fountains usually seen in gardens are generated by a wide pipe with an enclosure at one end having many small holes. Consider one such fountain which is produced by a pipe of internal diameter $2 \ cm$ in which water flows at a rate $3 \ ms^{-1}$. The enclosure has $100$ holes each of diameter $0.05 \ cm$. The velocity of water coming out of the holes is (in $ms^{-1}$):

  • A
    $0.48$
  • B
    $96$
  • C
    $24$
  • D
    $48$

Water is flowing in a pipe of diameter $4 \text{ cm}$ with a velocity $3 \text{ m/s}$. The water then enters into a tube of diameter $2 \text{ cm}$. The velocity of water in the other pipe is .......... $\text{m/s}$.

Select the $WRONG$ statement from the following. In a streamline flow,

What is the effect on the velocity of fluid if streamlines are widely spaced?

Assertion $(A):$ The stream of water flowing at high speed from a garden hose pipe tends to spread like a fountain when held vertically up but tends to narrow down when held vertically down.
Reason $(R):$ In any steady flow of an incompressible fluid,the volume flow rate of the fluid remains constant.
