In a horizontal tube,the water pressure changes by $1500 \text{ N m}^{-2}$ between points $A$ and $B$ as shown in the figure below. The cross-sectional areas at $A$ and $B$ of the tube are $40 \text{ cm}^2$ and $20 \text{ cm}^2$,respectively. Find the rate of flow of water through the tube.

  • A
    $1000 \text{ cm}^3 \text{ s}^{-1}$
  • B
    $2000 \text{ cm}^3 \text{ s}^{-1}$
  • C
    $4000 \text{ cm}^3 \text{ s}^{-1}$
  • D
    $6000 \text{ cm}^3 \text{ s}^{-1}$

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:

Air streams horizontally past an airplane. The speed over the top surface is $60 \, m/s$ and that under the bottom surface is $45 \, m/s$. The density of air is $1.293 \, kg/m^3$. The difference in pressure is ....... $N/m^2$.

Assertion $(A)$: The upper surface of the wing of an aeroplane is made convex and the lower surface is made concave.
Reason $(R)$: The air currents at the top have smaller velocity and thus less pressure at the bottom than at the top.
