A vessel completely filled with water has two holes 'P' and 'Q' at depths ' 2 h ' and ' 8 h ' from the top respectively. Hole ' P ' is square of side ' a ' and hole ' \(Q\) ' is a circle of radius ' \(r\) '. The water flowing out per second from both the holes is same, then side ' \(a\) ' of hole ' \(P\) ' is

  1. A \(\sqrt{2 \pi r}\)
  2. B \(r \sqrt{2 \pi}\)
  3. C \(2 \sqrt{\pi r}\)
  4. D \(2 \pi r\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(r \sqrt{2 \pi}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\( v_P = \sqrt{2gh_P} = \sqrt{2g(2h)} = \sqrt{4gh} \) \( v_Q = \sqrt{2gh_Q} = \sqrt{2g(8h)} = \sqrt{16gh} \)
