A shower head has 25 circular openings, each with radius \(1 \mathrm{~mm}\). The shower head is connected to a pipe with radius \(2 \mathrm{~cm}\). If the speed of the water in the pipe is \(25 \mathrm{~cm} / \mathrm{s}\). What is its speed as it exits the shower head openings?

  1. A \(1 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\)
  2. B \(2 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\)
  3. C \(4 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\)
  4. D \(5 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(4 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Radius of each circular opening, \[ \begin{aligned} r_1 & =1 \mathrm{~mm} \\ & =10^{-3} \mathrm{~m} \end{aligned} \] \(\therefore\) Cross-sectional area of each opening, \[ A_1=\pi r_1^2=\pi \times 10^{-6} \mathrm{~m}^2 \] Radius of the pipe,…
