Question
The cylindrical tube of a spray pump has radius R, one end of which has n fine holes, each of radius r. if the speed of the liquid in the tube is v, the speed of the ejection of the liquid through the holes is
-
vR2/n2r2
-
vR2/nr2
-
vR2/n3r2
-
v2R/nr
Solution
B.
vR2/nr2
During the streamline of viscous and incompressible fluid through a pipe varying cross -section, the product of the area of cross section and normal fluid velocity (Av) remains constant throughout the flow.
Consider a cylindrical tube of a spray pump has radius R, one end having n fine holes, each of radius r and speed of liquid in the tube is v as shown in the figure.

Av = constant
where A is a cylindrical tube and v is the velocity of the liquid in a tube.
Volume in flow rate = volume an outflow rate
πR2v = nπr2v'
v' = R2v/nr2
Thus, speed of the ejection of the liquid through the holes is R2v/nr2
Volume in flow rate = volume an outflow rate
πR2v = nπr2v'
v' = R2v/nr2
Thus, speed of the ejection of the liquid through the holes is R2v/nr2
