Statement I: The velocity increases, when water flowing in broader pipe enter a narrow pipe.
Statement II: According to equation of continuity, product of area and velocity is constant.
In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsD
Both Statement I and Statement II are correct.
In a stream line flow of a liquid, according to equation of continuity 
constant,
where 
is the area of cross-section and 
is the velocity of liquid flow. When water flowing in a broader pipe enters a narrow pipe, the area of cross-section of water decreases therefore, the velocity of water increases.
