Water flows through a frictionless duct with a cross-section varying as shown in the figure. The pressure $p$ at points along the axis is represented by:

The area of cross-section of a large tank is $0.5 \; m^{2}$. It has a narrow opening near the bottom having an area of cross-section $1 \; cm^{2}$. $A$ load of $25 \; kg$ is applied on the water at the top in the tank. Neglecting the speed of water in the tank,the velocity of the water coming out of the opening at the time when the height of water level in the tank is $40 \; cm$ above the bottom will be $\dots \; cm \; s^{-1}$. [Take $g = 10 \; m \; s^{-2}$]

Give the formula for the measurement of the velocity of a fluid in the broader part of a venturi-meter.

$A$ wind with speed $50 \,m/s$ blows parallel to the roof of a house. The area of the roof is $300 \,m^2$. Assume that the pressure inside the house is atmospheric pressure. The density of air is $1.2 \,kg/m^3$. The magnitude of the force exerted by the wind on the roof will be:
