Q10.Water from a pipe is coming at a rate of 100 liters per minute. If the radius of the pipe is 5 cm, the Reynolds number for the flow is of the order of: (density of water = 100 kg / m3, coefficient of viscosity of water = 1 mPa s ) (1) 102 (2) 104 (3) 103 (4) 106

What This Question Tests

This question involves calculating the Reynolds number for fluid flow in a pipe, requiring conversion of units and relating flow rate to average velocity.

9.3 A tank is filled with water to a height of 12.5 cm. The apparent depth of a needle lying at the bottom of the tank is measured by a microscope to be 9.4 cm. What is the refractive index of water? If water is replaced by a liquid of refractive index 1.63 up to the same height, by what distance would the microscope have to be moved to focus on the needle again?
