The reading of pressure metre attached with a closed pipe is \(4.5 \times 10^4 \mathrm{~N} / \mathrm{m}^2\). On opening the valve, water starts flowing and the reading of pressure metre falls to \(2.0 \times 10^4 \mathrm{~N} / \mathrm{m}^2\). The velocity of water is found to be \(\sqrt{\mathrm{V}} \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}\). The value of \(\mathrm{V}\) is__________

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(50\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\( \text { Change in pressure }=\frac{1}{2} \rho \mathrm{v}^2 \)

\( 4.5 \times 10^4-2.0 \times 10^4=\frac{1}{2} \times 10^3 \times \mathrm{v}^2 \)

\( 2.5 \times 10^4=\frac{1}{2} \times 10^3 \times \mathrm{v}^2 \)

\( \mathrm{v}^2=50 \)

\( \mathrm{v}=\sqrt{50} \)

\( \text { Velocity of water }=\sqrt{\mathrm{V}}=\sqrt{50} \)

\( =\mathrm{V}=50\)
