$A$ liquid of density $750\,kg\,m^{-3}$ flows smoothly through a horizontal pipe that tapers in cross-sectional area from $A_{1} = 1.2 \times 10^{-2}\,m^{2}$ to $A_{2} = \frac{A_{1}}{2}$. The pressure difference between the wide and narrow sections of the pipe is $4500\,Pa$. The rate of flow of liquid is . . . . . . $\times 10^{-3}\,m^{3}\,s^{-1}$.

In the diagram shown,the difference in the height of the liquid columns in the two tubes of the manometer is $5\, cm$. The cross-sectional areas of the tube at $A$ and $B$ are $6\, mm^2$ and $10\, mm^2$ respectively. The rate at which water flows through the tube is ........ $cc/s$ $(g = 10\, m/s^2)$.
