Water (of density $\varrho$) flows steadily through a horizontal pipe of variable cross-section. If the pressure of water is $P$ at a point where the flow speed is $V$,then the pressure at another point where the flow speed becomes $3V$ is:

  • A
    $P + 4 \varrho V^2$
  • B
    $P - 4 \varrho V^2$
  • C
    $P + 8 \varrho V^2$
  • D
    $P - 8 \varrho V^2$

$A$ manometer connected to a closed tap reads $4.5 \times 10^5 \text{ Pa}$. When the tap is opened,the reading of the manometer falls to $4 \times 10^5 \text{ Pa}$. The velocity of the flow of water is ........ $m/s$.

The figures below show water flowing through a horizontal pipe from left to right. Note that the pipe in the middle is narrower. Choose the most appropriate depiction of water levels in the vertical pipes.

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 $\,m$)
