Two liquids of densities d1 and d2 are flowing in identical capillaries under same pressure difference. If t1 and t2 are the time taken for the flow of equal quantities of liquids, then the ratio of coefficients of viscosities of liquids must be
According to Poiseuille's law, the rate of flow of liquid through a capillary tube having viscosity coefficient, can be expressed as
η=π⋅r4tP8vl
For, identical capillary,η α Pt and P α ρght
P is hydrostatic pressure, t is time, g is gravity, dis density, h is height and η is viscosity.$
η1∝d1ght1 and η2∝d2ght2
