$A$ horizontal tube of non-uniform cross-section has radii of $0.2\,m$ and $0.1\,m$ at points $P$ and $Q$ respectively. For the streamline flow of an incompressible liquid,the rate of liquid flow is:

Water coming out of the mouth of a tap and falling vertically in streamline flow forms a tapering column,i.e.,the area of cross-section of the liquid column decreases as it moves down. Which of the following is the most accurate explanation for this?

The radius of the cross-section of the cylindrical tube of a spray pump is $2 \,cm$. One end of the pump has $50$ fine holes, each of radius $0.4 \,mm$. If the speed of flow of the liquid inside the tube is $0.04 \,ms^{-1}$, what is the speed of ejection of the liquid from the holes (in $\,ms^{-1}$)?

Fountains usually seen in gardens are generated by a wide pipe with an enclosure at one end having many small holes. Consider one such fountain which is produced by a pipe of internal diameter $2 \ cm$ in which water flows at a rate $3 \ ms^{-1}$. The enclosure has $100$ holes each of diameter $0.05 \ cm$. The velocity of water coming out of the holes is (in $ms^{-1}$):

An ideal fluid flows (laminar flow) through a pipe of non-uniform diameter. The maximum and minimum diameters of the pipe are $6.4 \; cm$ and $4.8 \; cm,$ respectively. The ratio of the minimum and the maximum velocities of the fluid in this pipe is:
