Answer : 2. "29.39 cm"
Explanation :
Answer: B) 29.39 cm Explanation: Volume of water flowing through 1 pipe of diameter x = Volume discharged by 6 pipes of diameter 12 cms. As speed is same, area of cross sections should be same. Area of bigger pipe of diameter x = Total area of 6 smaller pipes of diameter 12 i.e πR2 = 6πR12 Here R = R and R1 = 12/2 = 6 ⇒R2 = 6×6×6 R = 14.696 => D = X = 14.696 * 2 = 29.3938 cm.
