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.

A ball of mass $10\, kg$ moving with a velocity $10 \sqrt{3} m / s$ along the $x-$axis, hits another ball of mass $20\, kg$ which is at rest. After the collision, first ball comes to rest while the second ball disintegrates into two equal pieces. One piece starts moving along $y-$axis with a speed of $10$ $m / s$. The second piece starts moving at an angle of $30^{\circ}$ with respect to the $x-$axis. The velocity of the ball moving at $30^{\circ}$ with $x-$ axis is $x\, m / s$. The configuration of pieces after collision is shown in the figure below. The value of $x$ to the nearest integer is
