What will be the nature of flow of water from a circular tap,when its flow rate increases from $0.18\, L/min$ to $0.48\, L/min$? The radius of the tap is $0.5\, cm$ and the viscosity of water is $10^{-3}\, Pa\cdot s$. (Density of water: $10^{3}\, kg/m^{3}$)

  • A
    Unsteady to steady flow
  • B
    Remains steady flow
  • C
    Remains turbulent flow

Glycerine flows steadily through a horizontal tube of length $1.5 \; m$ and radius $1.0 \; cm$. If the amount of glycerine collected per second at one end is $4.0 \times 10^{-3} \; kg \; s^{-1}$,what is the pressure difference between the two ends of the tube? (Density of glycerine $= 1.3 \times 10^{3} \; kg \; m^{-3}$ and viscosity of glycerine $= 0.83 \; Pa \; s$). [You may also like to check if the assumption of laminar flow in the tube is correct]
