Velocity has to be the same at the same horizontal level in case of steady laminar flow.

Velocity has to be the same at the same horizontal level in case of steady laminar flow. Correct Answer False

Velocity can be different at the same horizontal level if the area of the cross section at the two points is different. This is according to the equation of continuity, A1v1 = A2v2, where A is area and v is velocity.

A pollutant P degrades according to first order kinetics. An aqueous stream containing P at 2 kmole/m3 and volumetric flow rate 1 m3/h requires a mixed flow reactor of volume V to bring down the pollutant level to 0.5 kmole/m3. The inlet concentration of the pollutant is now doubled and the volumetric flow rate is tripled. If the pollutant level is to be brought down to the same level of 0.5 kmole/m3, the volume of the mixed flow reactor should be increased by a factor of
