  1. A is a constant
  2. B decreases with time
  3. C increases with time
  4. D first increases and then decreases, finally having same value as at the beginning
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) first increases and then decreases, finally having same value as at the beginning

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\text { From } T=2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}\)
The effective length increases due to this flow of water. Therefore, \(\mathrm{T}\) increases. As the water flows out, the length decreases and becomes equal to the original length. Hence, the time period becomes equal to the value at the beginning.
