A cylindrical vessel of cross-section \(A\) contains water to a height \(h\) . There is a hole in the bottom of radius \('a'\) . The time in which it will be emptied is

  1. A \(\frac{{2A}}{{\pi {a^2}}}\sqrt {\frac{h}{g}} \)
  2. B \(\frac{{\sqrt 2A }}{{\pi {a^2}}}\sqrt {\frac{h}{g}} \)
  3. C \(\frac{{2\sqrt 2A }}{{\pi {a^2}}}\sqrt {\frac{h}{g}} \)
  4. D \(\frac{A}{{\sqrt 2 \pi {a^2}}}\sqrt {\frac{h}{g}} \)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(\frac{{\sqrt 2A }}{{\pi {a^2}}}\sqrt {\frac{h}{g}} \)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Let the rate of falling water level be \( - \frac{{dh}}{{dt}}\) Initially at \(t = 0\,;\,h = h\) \(t = t\,;h = 0\) \(Then,\,A\left( { - \frac{{dh}}{{dt}}} \right) = \pi {a^2}.v\) \(\left[ {Velocity\,of\,efflux\,of\,liquid\,v = \sqrt {2gh} } \right]\) Integrating both sides…
