When a liquid of density $\rho$ flows through a tube of diameter $d$ with critical velocity $V$,then the Reynolds number is (where $\eta$ is the coefficient of viscosity of the liquid).

  • A
    $\frac{\eta \rho}{V d}$
  • B
    $\frac{V d}{\rho \eta}$
  • C
    $\frac{\rho V d}{\eta}$
  • D
    $\frac{V \eta d}{\rho}$

What is critical velocity? Write its equation.

Two tubes of radii $r_1$ and $r_2$,and lengths $l_1$ and $l_2$,respectively,are connected in series and a liquid flows through each of them in streamline conditions. $P_1$ and $P_2$ are pressure differences across the two tubes. If $P_2 = 4P_1$ and $l_2 = \frac{l_1}{4}$,then the radius $r_2$ will be equal to:
