A cylinder of height is completely filled with water. The velocity of efflux of water (in ) through a small hole on the side wall of the cylinder near its bottom is
- A
- B
- C
- D
View written solutionFree
Correct answer: B
- Use Torricelli’s theorem
For a small hole at depth below the free surface of a liquid, the speed of efflux is
- Identify the depth
The cylinder is completely filled with water and the hole is near the bottom.
So the depth of the hole below the top free surface is approximately the full height:
- Substitute values
Taking ,
- Match with options
The correct option is:
So, Option B is correct.
