Answer
Correct option: A.
a
$(a)$ By Bernoulli's equation for streamline flow,
$(a)$ By Bernoulli's equation for streamline flow,
$p+\frac{1}{2} \rho v^{2}+\rho g h=\text { a constant }$
In given situation $h=$ constant
$\therefore \quad p+\frac{1}{2} \rho v^{2}=$ constant
When velocity of flow in narrow section increases, pressure decreases.
So, current level in vertical tubes is as shown below.
