Assertion: The velocity of flow of a liquid is smaller when pressure is larger and vice versa. Reason: According to Bernoulli's theorem, for the stream line flow of an ideal liquid, the total energy per unit mass remains constant.

A liquid having density 6000 kg//m^(3) stands to a height of 4 m in a sealed tank as shown in the figure. The tank contains compressed air at a gauge pressure of 3 atm . The horizontal outlet pipe has a cross-sectional area of 6 cm^(2) and 3 cm^(2) at larger and smaller sections. Atmospheric pressure = 1 atm, g = 10m//s^(2) 1 atm =10^(5) N//m^(2) . Assume that depth of water in the tank remains constant due to s very large base and air pressure above it remains constant. Based on the above information, answer the following questions. The discharge rate from the outlet is

Why should the diameter of mitochondria remain fairly constant when the length is so variable?

Temperature remaining constant, the pressure of gas is decreased by 20%. The percentage change in volume

In a vessel N_(2),H_(2)andNH_(3) are at equilibrium. Some helium gas is introduction into the vessel so that total pressure increases while temperature and volume remain constant. According to Le Chatelier's principle, the dissociation of NH_(3) (A)increases (B)decreases (C)remains unchanged (D)equilibrium is disturbed

Torricelli was the first do devise an experiment for measuring atmospheric pressure . He took calibrated hard glass tube , 1 m in lengt and of uniform cross section , closed at one end . He filled the whole tube with dry mercury taking care than no air or water droplets remain inside the tube , closed the opposite end of the tube tightly with thumb and inverted it . He put this inverted mercury tube into a mercury through , taking care that the end of the tube remains inside the mercury through , An interesting thing was noticed . Mercury in the tube fell down at first and then stopped at a particular position . The height was 76 cm above the free surface of mercury in the through . When the given tube was inclined or lowered in the mercury trough , the vertical haight of mercury level in the tube was always found constant . Torricelli explained this by saying that the free surface of mercury in the trough . Hence , the hydrostatic pressure exerted by the trough measures the atmospheric pressure . If this expriment uses water instead of mercury , then A. length of water will be equal to 76 cm B. length of water will be less than 76 cm C. length of water will be greater than 76 cm D. none of the above

A broad pipe having a radius 10 cm branches into two pipes of radii 5 cm and 3cm . If the velocity of flowing water in the pipe of radius 3 cm is 5 cm//s , determine the velocities of water in the remaining two pipes. Given that the rate of discharge through the main branch is 600picm^(3)//s .

A spherical ball of salt is dissolving in water in such a manner that the rate of decrease of volume at any instant is proportional to the surface. Prove that the radius is decreasing at a constant rate.
