A liquid is allowed into a tube of truncated cone shape. Identify the correct statement from the following.

Options

  1. AThe speed is high at the wider end and low at the narrow end.
  2. BThe speed is low at the wider end and high at the narrow end.
  3. CThe speed is same at both ends in a streamline flow.
  4. DThe liquid flows with uniform velocity in the tube.

Correct answer

B. The speed is low at the wider end and high at the narrow end.

Step-by-step solution

For an incompressible liquid equation of continuity A V= constant or \text{ constant or } A \propto 1VTherefore,at\frac{1}{V} Therefore, at the wider end speed below and at the narrow end speed will be high.
