  • B$M\,\left( {1 - \frac{d}{{{d_2}}}} \right)$
  • C$M\left( {1 - \frac{d}{{{d_1}}}} \right)$
  • D$\frac{{M(1 - d/{d_2})}}{{(1 - d/{d_1})}}$

    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 $\sqrt{\mathrm{V}} \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}$. The value of $\mathrm{V}$ is__________

    An object with uniform density $\rho$ is attached to a spring that is known to stretch linearly with applied force as shown below.When the spring object system is immersed in a liquid of density $\rho_1$ as shown in the above figure, the spring stretches by an amount $x_1\left(\rho > \rho_1\right)$. When the experiment is repeated in a liquid of density $\left(\rho_2 < \rho_1\right)$, the spring stretches by an amount $x_2$. Neglecting any buoyant force on the spring, the density of the object is
