The correct Answer is:
To analyze the statements provided in the question, we will break down the reasoning step by step. ### Step 1: Understanding Statement 1 Statement 1 describes the behavior of water flowing from a garden hosepipe when held in two different orientations: vertically up and vertically down. - **When held vertically up**: The stream of water spreads out like a fountain. This occurs because the water is moving against gravity, and as it exits the hosepipe, the kinetic energy of the water is converted into potential energy, causing the water to spread out. - **When held vertically down**: The stream of water narrows down. In this case, the water is moving with gravity, and the acceleration due to gravity increases the speed of the water as it exits the hosepipe. ### Step 2: Understanding Statement 2 Statement 2 states that in any steady flow of an incompressible fluid, the volume flow rate remains constant. - The volume flow rate (Q) is defined as the product of the cross-sectional area (A) of the flow and the velocity (V) of the fluid: \[ Q = A \times V \] - For an incompressible fluid, the volume flow rate must remain constant throughout the flow. This means that if the area decreases, the velocity must increase to keep the product \( A \times V \) constant. ### Step 3: Applying the Continuity Equation When the hosepipe is held down: - The cross-sectional area (A) of the stream decreases as the water flows downward. - According to the continuity equation, if the area decreases, the velocity (V) of the water must increase to maintain a constant flow rate. ### Step 4: Conclusion Based on the analysis: - **Statement 1** is true because it accurately describes the behavior of the water stream in both orientations. - **Statement 2** is also true as it correctly explains the principle of conservation of mass for incompressible fluids. Furthermore, Statement 2 serves as the correct explanation for Statement 1, as it provides the underlying principle (continuity equation) that explains why the stream behaves differently when oriented in different directions. ### Final Answer Both statements are true, and Statement 2 is the correct explanation of Statement 1. Thus, the correct answer is option 1. ---

Figure shows water in a container having 2.0-mm thick walls made of a material of thermal conductivity 0.50Wm^(-1)C^(-1) . The container is kept in a melting-ice bath at 0^(@)C . The total surface area in contact with water is 0.05m^(2) . A wheel is clamped inside the water and is coupled to a block of mass M as shown in the figure. As the goes down, the wheel rotates. It is found that after some time a steady state is reached in which the block goes down with a constant speed of 10cms^(-1) and the temperature of the water remains constant at 1.0^(@)C .Find the mass M of the block. Assume that the heat flow out of the water only through the walls in contact. Take g=10ms^(-2) .

An uniform disc is rotating at a constant speed in a vertical plane about a fixed horizontal axis passing through the centre of the disc. A piece of the disc from its rim detaches itself from the disc at the instant when it is at horizontal level with the centre of the disc and moving upwards, then about the fixed axis. STATEMENT-1 : Angular speed of the disc about the aixs of rotation will increase. and STATEMENT-2 : Moment of inertia of the disc is decreased about the axis of rotation.

The human ciculatory system can be thought of as a closed system of interconnecting pipes through which fluid is continuously circulated by two pumps the two pumps the right and left verticles of the heart, work as simple two-stroke force pumps. The muscles of the heart regulate the force by contracting and relaxing. the contraction (systole) lasts about 0.2s and a complete systole/diastole (contraction/relaxation) cycle lasts about 0.8s. For flood pressures and speeds in the normal range. the volume flow rate of blood through a blood vessel is directly proportional tot he pressure difference over a length of the vessel and to the fourth power of the radius of the vessel. The total mechanical energy per unit volume of blood just as it leaves the heart is E//V=rhogh+P+rhov^(2) Q. Why is diastolic blood pressure muchh lower than systolic pressure? A. because the heart exerts more force on the blood during diastole B. Because the heart exerts no force on the blood during diastole C. Because the radii of the blood vessels increase during diastole while the force exerted by the heart on the blood remains the same. D. Because the radii of the blood vessels increase during diastole while the force exerted by the heart on the blood remains the same.
