An ideal fluid flows through a pipe of circular cross-section made of two sections with diameters 2.5 cm and 3.75 cm. The ratio of the velocities in the two pipes is

a) 9:4

b) 3:2

c) \sqrt{3}:\sqrt{2}

d) \sqrt{2}:\sqrt{3}

The answer is the option (a) 9:4

 a1 v1 = a2 v2

\frac{v1}{v2}= \frac{a2}{a1}

\frac{v1}{v2} =\frac{ d2^{2}}{d1^{2}}

putting values,

\frac{v1}{v2} = \frac{\left ( 3.75 \times 3.75 \right )}{2.5 \times 2.5} =\frac{9}{4}

so, v1: v2 = 9:4. Hence option a is correct.
