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

The Bernoulli's equation is given by $p + \frac{1}{2} \rho v^{2} + h \rho g = k$,where $p =$ pressure,$\rho =$ density,$v =$ speed,$h =$ height of the liquid column,$g =$ acceleration due to gravity,and $k$ is a constant. The dimensional formula for $k$ is the same as that for:

In a test experiment on a model aeroplane in a wind tunnel,the flow speeds on the upper and lower surfaces of the wings are $70 \,m/s$ and $65 \,m/s$ respectively. If the wing area is $2 \,m^2$,the lift of the wing is . . . . . . $N$. (Given density of air $= 1.2 \,kg/m^3$)
