A spray gun is shown in the figure where a piston pushes air out of a nozzle. A thin tube of uniform cross section is connected to the nozzle. The other end of the tube is in a small liquid container. As the piston pushes air through the nozzle, the liquid from the container rises into the nozzle and is sprayed out. For the spray gun shown, the radii of the piston and the nozzle are 20mm and 1mm respectively. The upper end of the container is open to the atmosphere. If the piston is pushed at a speed of 5mms^-1 , the air comes out of the nozzle with a speed of

A container of large uniform cross-sectional area A resting on a horizontal surface, holes two immiscible, non-viscon and incompressible liquids of densities d and 2d each of height H//2 as shown in the figure. The lower density liquid is open to the atmosphere having pressure P_(0) . A homogeneous solid cylinder of length L(LltH//2) and cross-sectional area A//5 is immeresed such that it floats with its axis vertical at the liquid-liquid interface with length L//4 in the denser liquid, The cylinder is then removed and the original arrangement is restroed. a tiny hole of area s(sltltA) is punched on the vertical side of the container at a height h(hltH//2) . As a result of this, liquid starts flowing out of the hole with a range x on the horizontal surface. The total pressure with cylinder, at the bottom of the container is
