Statement I: A liquid will flow faster and more smoothly from a sealed can when two holes are punched in the can than when one hole is punched.
Statement II: The flow becomes streamlined with two holes rather than with one hole.

A

Statement I is true, statement II is true and Statement II is a correct explanation for Statement I.

B

Statement I is true, Statement II is true and Statement II is NOT the correct explanation for Statement I.

C

Statement I is true, Statement II is false.

D

Statement I is false, Statement II is true.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
When two holes are made, the velocity of flow through each holes is much less tan the velocity of flow when there is only one hole. Hence, the flow becomes streamline with two holes.
This is the reason why a liquid flows more smoothly and faster with two holes.

A water tank standing on the floor has two small holes punched in the vertical wall one above the other. The holes are 2.4 cm and 7.6 cm above the floor. If the jest of water from the holes hit the floor at the same point, then the height of water in the tank is

Equal volumes of two immiscible liquids of densities rho and 2 rho are filled in a vessel as shown in figure. Two small holes are punched at depth h/2 and 3h/2 from the surface of lighter liquid. If v_(1) and v_(2) are the velocities of efflux at these two holes then ((v_(2))/(v_(1)))^(2) is

Statement I:A uniformly charged disk has a pin hole at its centre. The electric field at the center of the disk is zero. Statement II: Disk can be supposed to be made up of many rings. Also, electric field at the center of a uniformly charged ring is zero.

A punching machine is used to punch a circular hole of diameter two units from a square sheet of aluminium of width 2 units, as shown below. The hole is punched such that the circular hole touches one corner P of the square sheet and the diameter of the hole originating at P is in line with a diagonal of the square. The proportion of the sheet area that remains after punching is:

Equal volumes of two immiscible liquids of densities rho and 3rho are filled in a big vessel. Two small holes are punched at depth h//3 and 4h//3 from upper surface of lighter liquid. If v_(1) and v_(2) are velocities of efflux at these two holes, then v_(1)//v_(2) is

Three tiny holes are made in an empty can at different levels, one over the other. They are temporarily closed with an adhesive tap and then the can is filled with water. As the tapes are pulled out, water starts flowing out from the holes. It is observed that water flowing out from the lowest hole goes farthest and that from the uppermost hole nearest to the can (BE > BD > BC). Why? What does this experiment show ?
