Water is flowing through a channel (lying in a vertical plane) as shown in the figure. Three sections $A, B$ and $C$ are shown. Sections $B$ and $C$ have equal area of cross-section. If $P_A, P_B$ and $P_C$ are the pressures at $A, B$ and $C$ respectively,then:

  • A
    $P_A > P_B = P_C$
  • B
    $P_A < P_B < P_C$
  • C
    $P_A < P_B = P_C$
  • D
    $P_A > P_B > P_C$

Glycerine of density $1.25 \times 10^3 \, kg \, m^{-3}$ is flowing through a conical section of a pipe. The area of cross-section of the pipe at its ends is $10 \, cm^2$ and $5 \, cm^2$, and the pressure drop across its length is $3 \, N \, m^{-2}$. The rate of flow of glycerine through the pipe is $x \times 10^{-5} \, m^3 \, s^{-1}$. The value of $x$ is $..............$.

Water is flowing in a streamline manner in a horizontal pipe. If the pressure at a point where the cross-sectional area is $10 \,cm^2$ and velocity is $1 \,m/s$ is $2000 \,Pa$, then the pressure of water at another point where the cross-sectional area is $5 \,cm^2$ is: (in $\,Pa$)

Air of density $1.2 \, kg \, m^{-3}$ is blowing across the horizontal wings of an aeroplane in such a way that its speeds above and below the wings are $150 \, m \, s^{-1}$ and $100 \, m \, s^{-1}$,respectively. The pressure difference between the upper and lower sides of the wings is ........ $N \, m^{-2}$.
