$Assertion :$ The pressure of water increases when it flows from a narrow pipe to a wider pipe.
$Reason :$ According to the equation of continuity,$A_1v_1 = A_2v_2$,and by Bernoulli's principle,where velocity is high,pressure is low.

An aeroplane of mass $4.5 \times 10^4 \,kg$ and total wing area of $600 \,m^2$ is travelling at a constant height. The pressure difference between the upper and lower surfaces of its wings is (Acceleration due to gravity $= 10 \,m \,s^{-2}$)

View Solution

Water is in streamline flow along a horizontal pipe with non-uniform cross-section. At a point in the pipe where the area of cross-section is $10 \,cm^{2}$, the velocity of water is $1 \,ms^{-1}$ and the pressure is $2000 \,Pa$. The pressure at another point where the cross-sectional area is $5 \,cm^{2}$ is (in $\,Pa$)
