Q2 | The volume of a fluid
Q3 | The most economical section of a rectangular channel is one which has hydraulic mean depth or hydraulic radius equal to
Q4 | The value of coefficient of discharge is
Q5 | A flow in which the viscosity of fluid is dominating over the inertia force is called
Q6 | Whenever a plate is held immersed at some angle with the direction of flow of the liquid, it is subjected to some pressure. The component of this pressure, at right angles to the direction of flow of the liquid is known as lift.
Q7 | A notch is, usually, made of a metallic plate.
Q8 | The flow of water through the hole in the bottom of a wash basin is an example of
Q9 | When a body is immersed wholly or partially in a liquid, it is lifted up by a force equal to the weight of liquid displaced by the body. This statement is called

Q11 | The hydraulic gradient line lies over the centre line of the pipe by an amount equal to the
Q12 | When the pressure intensity at a point is more than the local atmospheric pressure, then the difference of these two pressures is called
Q13 | The length of the divergent cone in a venturimeter is
