Important Questions on Equation of Continuity
Water is filled in a cylindrical container to a height of . There is an orifice on the side of the container at a height from the base of the container. The ratio of the cross-sectional area of the orifice and the beaker is . The square of the speed of the liquid coming out from the orifice is

A liquid flows through a pipe of non-uniform crosssection. If and are the cross-sectional areas of the pipe at two points, the ratio of velocities of the liquid at these points will be

Water is flowing continuously from a tap having an internal diameter . The water velocity as it leaves the tap is . The diameter of the water stream at a distance below the tap is close to

Two pipes and having diameters and respectively are joined in series with the main supply line of water. The velocity of water flowing in pipe is

A tube has two areas of cross-section as shown in Fig. The diameters of the tube are and . Find range of water falling on horizontal surface, if piston is moving with a constant velocity of .

A horizontal pipeline carries water in a streamline flow. At a point along the pipe where the cross-sectional area is , the water velocity is and the pressure is . Find the pressure on water at another point-where the cross-sectional area is . Density of water .

Calculate the rate of flow of glycerine of density through the conical section of a pipe if the radii of its ends are and and the pressure-drop across its length is

A garden hose has inside cross-sectional are and opening in the nozzle at other end is . The velocity of water in the segment of the hose which lies on the ground is . If a man holds the nozzle at a height from the ground, find
the velocity with which water comes out of the nozzle and

Water flows through a pipe whose internal diameter is at the speed of . What should be the diameter of the nozzle if the water is to emerge at a speed of ?

What is the equation of continuity? Establish this equation.

Explain why :
A fluid flowing out of a small hole in a vessel results in a backward thrust on the vessel.

Explain why :
the size of the needle of a syringe controls flow rate better than the thumb pressure exerted by the doctor while administering an injection.

Explain why :
When we try to close a water tap with our fingers, fast jets of water gush through the openings between our fingers.

Explain why :
To keep a piece of paper horizontal, we should blow over, not under it.

How you can demonstrate the principle of continuity in a simple way?

Write down the equation of continuity and explain the symbols. How it takes a simpler form for an incompressible fluid?

What is equation of continuity? Which basic principle this equation stands for?

A large open tank has two holes in the wall. One is a square hole of side at a depth from the top and the other is a circular hole of radius at a depth from the top. When the tank is completely filled with water, the quantities of water flowing out per second from both holes are the same. Then, is equal to
