Solution

The correct option is A $8 : 1$
given :- $l_{2} = 2 l_{1} & r_{2} = 2 r_{1}$
Since flow rate across 1 = flow rate across 2
[as flow rate remains constant]
$\frac{π \times P_{1} r_{1}^{4}}{8 g l_{2}} = \frac{π P_{2} r_{2}^{4}}{8 g l_{2}}$
$\frac{P_{1}}{P_{2}} = \frac{l_{1}}{l_{2}} \times {(\frac{r_{2}}{r_{1}})}^{4} = \frac{1}{2} \times 2^{4} = 8$
