Question

A horizontal composite capillary tube has a radius 2r for a length 2L and radius r for a length L as shown and is connected to a tank at one end and left free at the other end. The tank contains a liquid of coefficient of viscosity η . If a constant pressure difference P exists across the ends of the capillary tube, the volume flux through the capillary tube is

Solution

The correct option is D (89πPr48ηL)
Let the P in Middle be P1,
So, As the pipes are in series the flow rate should be same in both pipe for conyinuity,
π(PP1r2)48η2=P1r48η
16(PP1)2=P18P8P1=P18P9=P1
So, The flux (Volume flow rate ) through the capillary is
πP1r48ηL=89(πPr48ηL)
