    Water flows along a horizontal pipe whose cross-section is not constant. The pressure is 1 cm of Hg, where the velocity is 35 \[\text{cm}{{\text{s}}^{-1}}\]. At a point where the velocity is 65 \[\text{cm}{{\text{s}}^{-1}}\], the pressure will be

    A) 0.89 cm of Hg    

    B) 8.9 cm of Hg

    C) 0.5 cm of Hg      

    D) 1 cm of Hg

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    In horizontal pipe \[{{p}_{1}}=\frac{1}{2}\rho v_{1}^{2}={{p}_{2}}+\frac{1}{2}\rho v_{2}^{2}\]?(i) Here,\[{{p}_{1}}={{\rho }_{m}}g{{h}_{1}}=13600\times 9.8\times {{10}^{-2}}\] \[{{p}_{2}}=13600\times 9.8\times h\] \[\rho =1000\,kg{{m}^{-3}}\] \[{{v}_{1}}=35\times {{10}^{-2}}m{{s}^{-1}}\] \[{{v}_{2}}=65\times {{10}^{-2}}m{{s}^{-1}}\] \[\therefore \]From Eq. (i), \[13600\times 9.8\times {{10}^{-2}}+\frac{1}{2}\times 1000\times {{(0.35)}^{2}}\] \[=13600\times 9.8\times h+\frac{1}{2}\times 1000\times {{(0.65)}^{2}}\] After solving, 0.89 cm of Hg.
