We have two (narrow) capillary tubes T_1 and T_2 . Their lengths are l_1 and l_2 and radii of cross-section are r_1 and r_2 respectively. The rate of flow of water under a pressure difference P through tube T is 8 cm 3// sec . If l_1 = 2l_2 and r_1 = r_2 what will be the rate of flow when the two tubes are connected in series and pressure difference across the combinatin is same as before (= P)
