Paragraph: 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 20 mm20 \mathrm{~mm} and 1 mm1 \mathrm{~mm}, respectively. The upper end of the container is open to the atmosphere. Paragraph: A spray gun is shown in the figure where a piston pushes air out of a nozzle. A thin tube of uniform cross

Question: If the density of air is ρa\rho_{a} and that of the liquid ρℓ\rho_{\ell}, then for a given piston speed the rate (volume per unit time) at which the liquid is sprayed will be proportional to

Options

  1. Aρaρl\sqrt{\dfrac{{ρ}_{a}}{{ρ}_{l}}}
  2. Bρaρl\sqrt{{ρ}_{a}{ρ}_{l}}
  3. Cρlρa\sqrt{\dfrac{{ρ}_{l}}{{ρ}_{a}}}
  4. Dρl{ρ}_{l}

Correct answer

A. ρaρl\sqrt{\dfrac{{ρ}_{a}}{{ρ}_{l}}}

Step-by-step solution

12ρaVa2=12ρlVl2\dfrac{1}{2}{ρ}_{a}{V}_{a}^{2} = \dfrac{1}{2}{ρ}_{l}{V}_{l}^{2}
For given Va{V}_{a}
Vl∝ρaρl{V}_{l} ∝ \sqrt{\dfrac{{ρ}_{a}}{{ρ}_{l}}}
