Question
Statement–I : Two identical conical pipes shown in figure have a drop of water. The water drop tends to move towards tapered end
Statement–II Excess pressure is directed towards centre of curvature and inversely proportional to radius of curvature. Net excess pressure is therefore, directed towards tapered end. So the water drop tends to move towards tapered end
- Statement–I is true, Statement–II is true ; Statement–II is correct explanation for Statement–I
- Statement–I is true, Statement–II is true ; Statement–II is NOT a correct explanation for Statement–I
- Statement–I is true, Statement–II is false
- Statement–I is false, Statement–II is true
The correct answer is: Statement–I is true, Statement–II is true ; Statement–II is correct explanation for Statement–I
