A cylindrical tank is filled with water to a level of \(3 \mathrm{~m}\). A hole is opened at a height of \(52.5 \mathrm{~cm}\) from the bottom. The ratio of the area of the hole to that of the cross-sectional area of the tank is 0.1 . The square of the speed with which water will be coming out from the orifice is \(\left(g=10 \mathrm{~ms}^{-2}\right)\)

  1. A \(50 \mathrm{~m}^2 \mathrm{~s}^{-2}\)
  2. B \(40 \mathrm{~m}^2 \mathrm{~s}^{-2}\)
  3. C \(51.5 \mathrm{~m}^2 \mathrm{~s}^{-2}\)
  4. D \(50.5 \mathrm{~m}^2 \mathrm{~s}^{-2}\)

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(50 \mathrm{~m}^2 \mathrm{~s}^{-2}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Let \(a\) be area of hole, \(v_{\varepsilon}\) be the velocity of efflux, \(h\) be the height of liquid above the hole. Let \(v\) be the speed with which level decreases in the container. From equation of continuity, \[ a v_e=A v \Rightarrow v=\frac{a v_e}{A} \] Using…
