The weight of an aeroplane flying in the air is balanced by:

  • A
    Vertical component of the thrust created by air currents striking the lower surface of the wings
  • B
    Force due to reaction of gases ejected by the revolving propeller
  • C
    Upthrust of the air which will be equal to the weight of the air having the same volume as the plane
  • D
    Force due to the pressure difference between the upper and lower surfaces of the wings created by different air speeds on the surfaces

Water from a tap emerges vertically downwards with an initial velocity of $4 \,m/s$. The cross-sectional area of the tap is $A$. The flow is steady and the pressure is constant throughout the stream of water. The distance $h$ vertically below the tap,where the cross-sectional area of the stream becomes $\frac{2}{3} A$,is (take $g = 10 \,m/s^2$): (in $\,m$)
