Question 1

Which among the following information is correct in case of a Bend?

Question 2

A cylindrical body of cross-sectional area A, height H and density, ρs is immersed to a depth h in a liquid of density ρ, and tied to the bottom with a string. The tension in the string is

Question 3

Figure shows the schematic for the measurement of velocity of air (density = 1.2 kg/m3) through a constant-area duct using a pitot tube and a water-tube manometer. The differential head of water (density = 1000 kg/m3) in the two columns of the manometer is 10 mm. Take acceleration due to gravity as 9.8 m/s2. The velocity of air in m/s is
