JEE MAIN - Physics (2024 - 27th January Evening Shift - No. 29)

The reading of pressure metre attached with a closed pipe is $$4.5 \times 10^4 \mathrm{~N} / \mathrm{m}^2$$. On opening the valve, water starts flowing and the reading of pressure metre falls to $$2.0 \times 10^4 \mathrm{~N} / \mathrm{m}^2$$. The velocity of water is found to be $$\sqrt{V} \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}$$. The value of $$V$$ is _________.
Answer
50

Explanation

$$\begin{aligned} & \text { Change in pressure }=\frac{1}{2} \rho \mathrm{v}^2 \\ & 4.5 \times 10^4-2.0 \times 10^4=\frac{1}{2} \times 10^3 \times \mathrm{v}^2 \\ & 2.5 \times 10^4=\frac{1}{2} \times 10^3 \times \mathrm{v}^2 \\ & \mathrm{v}^2=50 \\ & \mathrm{v}=\sqrt{50} \\ & \text { Velocity of water }=\sqrt{\mathrm{V}}=\sqrt{50} \\ & =\mathrm{V}=50 \end{aligned}$$
