A tank filled with water has two taps to exhaust and pour. A hollow spherical ball is half submerged in water. Through one tap, water is taken out and through another tap, a liquid of density double the density of water is poured in tank such that volume of liquid in tank remains constant. Sphere will

2. go up

3. maintain same height

4. sink to bottom

Water is flowing continuously from a tap having an internal diameter 8 x 10^-3 m. The water velocity as it leaves the tap is 0.4 ms^-1. The diameter of the water stream at a distance 2 x 10^-1 m below the tap is close to
