    Water flows in a streamlined manner through a capillary tube of radius a the pressure difference being p and the rate of flow Q. If the radius is reduced to a/2 and the pressure increased to 2p. The rate of flow becomes

    A)  4Q                        

    B)  Q    

    C)  \[\frac{Q}{4}\]                                 

    D)  \[\frac{Q}{8}\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

                    \[V=\frac{\pi {{\Pr }^{4}}}{8\eta l}\] \[\therefore \]  \[V\propto p{{r}^{4}}\] (\[\eta \] and I are contants) \[\therefore \]  \[\frac{{{V}_{2}}}{{{V}_{1}}}=\left( \frac{{{p}_{2}}}{{{p}_{1}}} \right){{\left( \frac{{{r}_{2}}}{{{r}_{1}}} \right)}^{4}}\]                 \[=2\times {{\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)}^{4}}=\frac{1}{8}\]                 \[{{V}_{2}}=\frac{Q}{8}\]
