JEE Main 6 September 2020, Shift 2, Physics Q7

Question 7 of 75 in this shift, Physics question 7 of 25.

A fluid is flowing through a horizontal pipe of varying cross-section, with speed v ms−1v\,\mathrm{ms^{-1}} at a point where the pressure is P Pascal. At another point where pressure is P2\frac{P}{2} Pascal its speed is V ms−1V\,\mathrm{ms^{-1}}. If the density of the fluid is ρ kg m−3\rho\,\mathrm{kg\,m^{-3}} and the flow is streamline, then V is equal to :
  1. (1)Pρ+v2\sqrt{\frac{P}{\rho}+v^2}Official answer
  2. (2)2Pρ+v2\sqrt{\frac{2P}{\rho}+v^2}
