An incompressible fluid (ideal fluid) is flowing through a non-uniform cross-sectional tube $PQ$ from end $P$ to end $Q$. If $K_P$ and $K_Q$ are the kinetic energy per unit volume of the fluid at end $P$ and end $Q$ respectively, then

Water enters through end $A$ with speed $v_1$ and leaves through end $B$ with speed $v_2$ of a cylindrical tube $AB$. The tube is always completely filled with water. In case $I$,the tube is horizontal; in case $II$,it is vertical with end $A$ upwards; and in case $III$,it is vertical with end $B$ upwards. We have $v_1 = v_2$ for:

$A$ shower head has $25$ circular openings, each with radius $1 \,mm$. The shower head is connected to a pipe with radius $2 \,cm$. If the speed of the water in the pipe is $25 \,cm/s$, what is its speed as it exits the shower head openings (in $\,m/s$)?

Define line of flow and streamline.

$A$ river gradually deepens from a depth of $4 \ m$ to a depth of $8 \ m$ as shown. The width,$W$,of the river does not change. At the depth of $4 \ m$,the river's speed is $12 \ m/s$. Its velocity at the $8 \ m$ depth is ......... $m/s$.
