As the fluid flow rate increases, the float of the Rotameter____________________?
Correct answer: A. Rises in the tube
- A. Rises in the tube
- B. Rotates at higher speed
- C. Rotates at lower speed
- D. Drops down in the tube
Explanation
A rotameter float rises until the increased upward drag balances its weight and buoyancy at a higher position. Its height, rather than its rotation speed, indicates the flow rate.
