    Two water pipes of diameters 2 cm and 4 cm are connected with the main supply line. If velocity of flow of water in the pipe of 4 cm diameter is X, then velocity in 2 cm diameter is

    A)  \[2\,X\]

    B)  \[4\,X\]

    C)  \[6\,X\]

    D)  \[8\,X\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    \[{{d}_{A}}=2\,cm\] and \[{{d}_{B}}=4\,cm\] \[{{r}_{A}}=1\,cm\] and \[{{r}_{B}}=2\,cm\] From equation of continuity, Av = constant                 \[\frac{{{X}_{A}}}{{{X}_{B}}}=\frac{{{a}_{B}}}{{{a}_{A}}}=\frac{\pi {{({{r}_{B}})}^{2}}}{\pi {{({{r}_{A}})}^{2}}}={{\left( \frac{2}{1} \right)}^{2}}\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[{{X}_{A}}=4X\]
