Alcohol flows through two capillary tube...

Alcohol flows through two capillary tubes under a pressure lead. The diameter of the two tubes are in the ratio of 4:1 and the length are in the ratio of 1:4. Compare the rate of flow of alcohol through the two tubes.

AI Generated Solution

To compare the rate of flow of alcohol through the two capillary tubes, we can use Poiseuille's law, which states that the flow rate (Q) of a fluid through a capillary tube is given by the formula: \[ Q = \frac{\pi r^4 \Delta P}{8 \eta L} \] Where: - \( Q \) = flow rate ...
