Grade 11 - Worksheet [ Flow of Fluid / Liquid ]
1. What are the properties of an ideal liquid?
2. Can two streamlines in a flowing fluid cross each other?
3. What is meant by the critical velocity of a liquid?
4. What does happen to the external energy used to maintain the flow?
5. Under what conditions does the Bernoulli's equation hold strictly? What happens if the liquid has
viscosity?
6. Can Bernoulli's equation be used to describe the flow of water through rapid in a river? Explain.
7. Why does the velocity increase and the pressure decrease when water flowing in a broader pipe
enters a narrow pipe?
8. According to Bernoulli's theorem, the pressure of water should remain uniform in a pipe of
uniform radius. But actually it goes on decreasing, why is it so?
9. People often living find in it houses difficult far to get away water from on the top municipal floor
even if it is situated at lower level than the level of water in the tank. Explain
10. When air is blown in between two light balls suspended close to each other, they are attracted
towards each other, why ?
11. What is the effect on the equilibrium of a physical balance when air is blown below one pan?
12. If two row boats happen to sail parallel and close to each other in the same direction, they
experience a force which pulls them towards each other. Give reason for it.
13. Give reason why deep water remains calm.
14. Which one is most viscous among water, air blood and honey? Which one is least viscous?
15. A flask contains glycerine and the other contains water. Both are stirred vigorously and placed on
the table. In which flask will the liquid come to rest earlier and why?
16. The velocity of water in a river is less on the bank and large in the middle. Why?
17. What is velocity gradient ? Write its unit and dimensions.
18. What is SI unit of coefficient of viscosity ?
19. What is meant by terminal velocity?
20. Explain, why raindrops falling under gravity do not acquire high velocity.
21. The diameter of a ball A is half of that of ball B. What will be the ratio of their terminal
velocities in water?
22. A steel-ball, a tennis-ball, a plastic ball (all of the same size) and a very small oil drop are
dropped from the peak of a high tower. Keeping in mind viscocity and buoyancy of air, state in
which order they will reach the ground.
23. The wings of an aeroplane are rounded at the front and flattened at the back; why?
24. In wind-storm generally tin-shades are blown off, give reason.
25. Why does a light ball remain suspended on a vertical jet of water ?
26. It is dangerous to stand on the edge of the platform near the railway track when the train is
passing by. Explain why?
27. Explain why you cannot remove the filter paper from the funnel shown in the figure by blowing
into the narrow end.

Numericals
1. Velocity of flow of water in a horizontal pipe is 10.0 m s-1.
Find the velocity-head of water. (g = 10.0 m s-2 ).
2. Water is flowing through a cylindrical pipe of cross-sectional area 0.09 π m² at a speed of 1.0 m s.
If the diameter of the pipe is halved, then find the speed of flow of water through it.
3. Water is flowing through a horizontal tube of non-uniform cross-section. At a place the radius of
the tube is 0.5 cm and the velocity of water there is 20 cm s-1. What will be the velocity at another
place where the radius of the tube is 1.0 cm?
4. Water is flowing through a horizontal pipe of non-uniform cross-section. The speed of water is 30
cm s-1 at a place where pressure is 10 cm (of water). Calculate the speed of water at the other place
where the pressure is half of that at the first place.
5. Water enters a horizontal pipe of non-uniform cross-section with a velocity of 0.5 m s-1 and leaves
the other end with a velocity of 0.7 m s-1. The pressure of water at the first end is 103 N m-2.
Calculate pressure at the other end. (Density of water -1.0 x 103 kg m-3)
6. What will be the terminal velocity of a steel ball of radius 2 mm in glycerine?
7. An iron ball of radius 0.3 cm falling through a column of oil of density 0.94 6O cm -3 attains a
terminal velocity of 0.5 cm s-1. What is the coefficient of viscosity of the oil?
The density of iron is 7.8 g cm-3.
8. Two drops of equal radii are falling through air with a terminal velocity of 5 cm s-1. If they
coalesce into one drop, what will be the terminal velocity of the new drop?
9. An air bubble (radius 0.4 mm) rises up in water. Determine the terminal speed of the bubble.
Density of air is negligible.
10. With what terminal velocity will an air bubble of diameter 0.8 mm rise in a liquid of density 900
kg m-3 and viscosity 0.15 N s m-2? What will be the terminal velocity of the same bubble in water?
Ignore density of air.
