$A$ capillary tube is connected to the bottom of a container. If its radius is increased by $10\%$,what is the percentage change in the rate of flow of the liquid (in $\%$)?

Consider a steady flow of oil in a pipeline. The cross-sectional radius of the pipeline decreases gradually as $r = r_0 e^{-\alpha x}$, where $\alpha = \frac{1}{3} \text{ m}^{-1}$ and $x$ is the distance from the pipeline inlet. If $R_1$ is the Reynolds number for a certain pipeline cross-section at a distance $x_1$ metre from the inlet and $R_2$ is for distance $(x_1 + 3)$ metre, then the ratio $\frac{R_1}{R_2}$ is
