Water flows in a horizontal pipe whose one end is closed with a valve. The reading of the pressure gauge attached to the pipe is P₁ . The reading of the pressure gauge falls to P₂ when the valve is opened. The speed of water flowing in the pipe is proportional to
Options
- AP₁-P₂
- B(P₁-P₂ )^4
- C( P ₁- P ₂ )^2
- DP ₁- P ₂
Correct answer
D. P ₁- P ₂
Step-by-step solution
Using Bernoulli's theorem aligned & P₁-P₂= 1 2 v^2 & v P₁-P₂ aligned
