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:
