Force exerted by oil on the cylinder is zero.

Force by water $=(4 \sigma g+4 \rho g) \times A$

$=\left[4 \times \frac{1}{2} \times \frac{10^{4}}{100}+\frac{4 \times 10^{3} \times 10}{100}\right] \times \frac{16 \pi}{10^{4}}=0.96 \pi \mathrm{N}$

    Water from a tap emerges vertically downwards with an initial speed of $1.0\,ms^{-1}.$ The cross-sectional area of the tap is $10^{-4}\,m^2.$ Assume that the pressure is constant throughout the stream of water and that flow is streamlined. The cross-sectional area of the stream, $0.15\,m$ below the tap would be: (take $g = 10\,ms^{-2}$ )
