    The rate of steady volume flow of water through a capillary tube of length $ 'l' $ and radius $ 'r' $ under a pressure difference of $P$  is $V$. This tube is connected with another tube of the same length but half the radius in series. Then the rate of steady volume flow through them is (The pressure difference across the combination is $ P$)

    Consider a water tank as shown in the figure. It's cross-sectional area is $0.4\, m ^{2}$. The tank has an opening $B$ near the bottom whose cross-section area is $1\, cm ^{2}$. A load of $24\, kg$ is applied on the water at the top when the height of the water level is $40\, cm$ above the bottom, the velocity of water coming out the opening $B$ is $v\, ms ^{-1}$. The value of $v$, to the nearest integer, is ......$m/s$. [Take value of $g$ to be $10 \,ms ^{-2}$ ]

    A $U$ tube with both ends open to the atmosphere, is partially filled with water. Oil, which is immiscible with water, is poured into one side until it stands at a distance of $10\,\, mm$ above the water level on the other side. Meanwhile the water rises by $65\,\, mm$ from its original level (see diagram). The density of the oil is ......... $kg/m^3$
