Water flows into a large tank with flat bottom at the rate of \({10^{ - 4}}\,{m^3}{s^{ - 1}}\). Water is also leaking out of a hole of area \(1\, cm^2\) at its bottom. If the height of the water in the tank remains steady, then this height is........ \(cm\)

  1. A \(5.1\)
  2. B \(1.7\)
  3. C \(4\)
  4. D \(2.9\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(5.1\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\frac{{dv}}{{dt}} = \phi - a\sqrt {2gh} = 0\) \((for\,maximum\,height)\) \(h = \frac{{{\phi ^2}}}{{2g{a^2}}} = \frac{{{{10}^{ - 8}}}}{{2 \times 9.8 \times {{10}^{ - 8}}}} = 5.1\,cm\)
