An ideal fluid of density $800 \; kg \cdot m^{-3}$ flows smoothly through a bent pipe (as shown in the figure) that tapers in cross-sectional area from $a$ to $\frac{a}{2}$. The pressure difference between the wide and narrow sections of the pipe is $4100 \; Pa$. At the wider section,the velocity of the fluid is $\frac{\sqrt{x}}{6} \; m \cdot s^{-1}$. Find the value of $x$. (Given $g = 10 \; m \cdot s^{-2}$)

  • A

$Assertion :$ The velocity of flow of a liquid is smaller when pressure is larger and vice-versa.
$Reason :$ According to Bernoulli's theorem,for the stream line flow of an ideal liquid,the total energy per unit mass remains constant.

$A$ horizontal pipe line carries water in a streamline flow. At a point along the tube where the cross-sectional area is $10^{-2} \ m^2$,the water velocity is $2 \ m/s$ and the pressure is $8000 \ Pa$. The pressure of water at another point where the cross-sectional area is $0.5 \times 10^{-2} \ m^2$ is ........ $Pa$.

Water is flowing in a streamline manner in a horizontal pipe. If the pressure at a point where the cross-sectional area is $10 \,cm^2$ and velocity is $1 \,m/s$ is $2000 \,Pa$, then the pressure of water at another point where the cross-sectional area is $5 \,cm^2$ is: (in $\,Pa$)
