Two venturimeter of different area ratio are connected at different locations at the same pipe and
similar manometers are used to measure pressure heads. The second venturimeter of area ratio 5
registers a pressure head 6h and the first one registers 1.5h. Find the area ratio of the first
venturimeter. Assume that the Ca value is same for both the venturimetrs.
