Water is flowing steadily in a river. A and B are the two layers of water at heights 40 cm and 90 cm from the bottom. The velocity of the layer A is \(12 \mathrm{~cm} / \mathrm{s}\). The velocity of the layer B is

  1. A \(15 \mathrm{~cm} / \mathrm{s}\)
  2. B \(21 \mathrm{~cm} / \mathrm{s}\)
  3. C \(27 \mathrm{~cm} / \mathrm{s}\)
  4. D \(36 \mathrm{~cm} / \mathrm{s}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(27 \mathrm{~cm} / \mathrm{s}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\( \frac{v_A}{h_A} = \frac{v_B}{h_B} \) \( v_B = v_A \left( \frac{h_B}{h_A} \right) \)
