    The gardner waters the plants by a pipe of diameter 1 mm. The water comes out at the rate of \[\text{10}\,\text{c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}\text{/sec}\]. The reactionary force exerted on the hand of the gardner is:

    A)  zero                                     

    B)  \[1.27\times {{10}^{-2}}N\]

    C)  \[1.27\times {{10}^{-4}}N\]       

    D)  \[0.127\,N\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    The force is given by \[F=\frac{dp}{dt}=\frac{d}{dt}(m\upsilon )=V\rho \upsilon \]                     ?(i) where V is the volume of water flowing per second \[\upsilon =\]speed of the flow \[V=\]cross-sectional area \[\times \] velocity                 \[=A\upsilon \]                 or            \[\upsilon =\frac{V}{A}\]                                              ?(2) So, putting the value of v in equation (1), we get \[F={{V}_{\rho }}\frac{V}{A}\] \[=\frac{{{V}^{2}}\rho }{A}=\frac{{{V}^{2}}\rho }{\pi {{r}^{2}}}\] \[=\frac{{{V}^{2}}\rho }{\pi {{\left( \frac{D}{2} \right)}^{2}}}=\frac{4{{V}^{2}}\rho }{\pi {{D}^{2}}}\] \[=\frac{4\times {{(10\times {{10}^{-6}})}^{2}}\times {{10}^{3}}}{3.14\times {{({{10}^{-3}})}^{2}}}\] \[=0.127\,N\]
