Solution
`"v"_circ + "f"_"e"` = 6.5 cm ....(1)
m = `"v"_circ/"u"_circ xx "D"/"f"_"e"` [taking D = 25 cm]
`=> "m" = - [1 - "v"_circ/"f"_circ] "D"/"f"_"e"`
`100 = - [1 - "v"_circ/0.5] 25/"f"_"e"`
`100 "f"_"e" = - (1 - 2"v"_circ) xx 25`
`2"v"_circ - 4 "f"_"e" = 1` .....(2)
Solving equation (1) and (2) we can get,
v0 = 4.5 cm and fe = 2 cm
