As shown in the figure, a pump is designed as horizontal cylinder with a piston having area A and an outlet orifice having an area ' \(a\) '. The piston moves with a constant velocity under the action of force \(F\). If the density of the liquid is \(\rho\), then the speed of the liquid emerging from the orifice is, (assume \(A > > a\) )

  1. A \(\sqrt{\frac{F}{\rho A}}\)
  2. B \(\frac{a}{A} \sqrt{\frac{F}{\rho A}}\)
  3. C \(\sqrt{\frac{2 F}{\rho A}}\)
  4. D \(\frac{A}{a} \sqrt{\frac{2 F}{\rho A}}\)
