Water is flowing at a speed of $1.5\, ms^{-1}$ through a horizontal tube of cross-sectional area $10^{-2}\, m^2$ and you are trying to stop the flow by your palm. Assuming that the water stops immediately after hitting the palm,the minimum force that you must exert should be ......... $N$ (density of water $= 10^3\, kgm^{-3}$)

  • A
    $22.5$
  • B
    $15$
  • C
    $33.7$
  • D

Some liquid is filled in a cylindrical vessel of radius $R$. Let $F_1$ be the force applied by the liquid on the bottom of the cylinder. Now the same liquid is poured into a vessel of uniform square cross-section of side $R$. Let $F_2$ be the force applied by the liquid on the bottom of this new vessel. Then:

$A$ tube of length $50\,cm$ is filled completely with an incompressible liquid of mass $250\,g$ and closed at both ends. The tube is then rotated in a horizontal plane about one of its ends with a uniform angular velocity $\omega = x \sqrt{F} \text{ rad } s^{-1}$. If $F$ is the force exerted by the liquid at the other end,then the value of $x$ will be:

$A$ stream of water flowing horizontally with a speed of $15\; m s^{-1}$ gushes out of a tube of cross-sectional area $10^{-2}\; m^2$,and hits a vertical wall nearby. What is the force in $N$ exerted on the wall by the impact of water,assuming it does not rebound?
