Bernoulli Equation is principally conservation of energy equation in fluids, relating the pressure, velocity of fluid flowing and gravitational potential of liquid at some point.

It is given as

$\frac{P}{\rho g}+h+\frac{1}{2} \frac{v^{2}}{g}=$ constant

where $\frac{P}{\rho g}$ is the pressure head.

    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 $g = 10\,ms^{-2}$ )

    Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion $A$ and the other is labelled as Reason $R$

    Assertion $A:$ When you squeeze one end of a tube to get toothpaste out from the other end, Pascal's principle is observed.

    Reason $R:$ A change in the pressure applied to an enclosed incompressible fluid is transmitted undiminished to every portion of the fluid and to the walls of its container.

    In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below

    Water is flowing on a horizontal fixed surface, such that its flow velocity varies with $y$ (vertical direction) as $v=k\left(\frac{2 y^2}{a^2}-\frac{y^3}{a^3}\right)$. If coefficient of viscosity for water is $\eta$, what will be shear stress between layers of water at $y=a$.

    A cylindrical vessel of height $500 \mathrm{~mm}$ has an orifice (small hole) at its bottom. The orifice is initially closed and water is filled in it up to height $\mathrm{H}$. Now the top is completely sealed with a cap and the orifice at the bottom is opened. Some water comes out from the orifice and the water level in the vessel becomes steady with height of water column being $200 \mathrm{~mm}$. Find the fall in height (in ${m m}$ ) of water level due to opening of the orifice.

    |Take atmospheric pressure $=1.0 \times 10^5 \mathrm{~N} / \mathrm{m}^2$, density of water $=1000 \mathrm{~kg} / \mathrm{m}^3$ and $g=10 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^2$. Neglect any effect of surface tension.]
