Consider a cylindrical tank of radius \(1 m\) is filled with water. The top surface of water is at \(15\,m\) from the bottom of the cylinder. There is a hole on the wall of cylinder at a height of \(5\,m\) from the bottom. A force of \(5 \times 10^{5} N\) is applied an the top surface of water using a piston. The speed of efflux from the hole will be. (given atmospheric pressure \(P_{A}=1.01 \times 10^{5}\,Pa\), density of water \(\rho_{ w }=1000\,kg / m ^{3}\) and gravitational acceleration \(g=10\,m / s ^{2}\) )

Apply the relevant identity from the chapter and substitute the values established in the previous step, keeping the original constraint in view.

Use the simplified expression to isolate the unknown, then plug the result back into the question setup to confirm the working is internally consistent.

Cross-check against a boundary or limiting case. Both the dimensional balance and the qualitative behaviour at the extreme should agree with the candidate answer.

Combine the steps above to identify the correct option. The remaining choices each fail at least one of the consistency, dimensional, or boundary checks.
