In the following fig., the flow of liquid through a horizontal pipe is shown. Three tubes A, B and C are connected to the pipe. The radii of the tubes `A,B and C` at the junction are respectively `2 cm, 1 cm and 2 cm`. It can be said that the

A

Height of the liquid in the tube A is maximum

B

Height of the liquid in the tubes A and B is the same

C

Height of the liquid in all the three tubes is the same

D

Height of the liquid in the tubes A and C is the same

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

As cross-section areas of both the tubes A and C are same and tube is horizontal. Hence according to equation of continuity `v_(A) = v_(c)` and therefore according to Bernoulli's theorem `P_(A) = P_(c)` i.e. height of liquid is same in both the tubes A and C.
