    A hole is in the bottom of the tank having water. If total pressure at the bottom is 3 atm (\[(1\,atm={{10}^{5}}\,N{{m}^{-2}}),\]1 then velocity of water flowing from hole is:

    A) \[\sqrt{400}\,m{{s}^{-1}}\]

    B) \[\sqrt{600}\,m{{s}^{-1}}\]

    C)  \[\sqrt{60}\,m{{s}^{-1}}\]

    D)  \[\sqrt{40}\,m{{s}^{-1}}\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

     Let height of water column in the tank be \[h.\] Total pressure (P)= atmospheric pressure \[({{P}_{0}})+\] pressure due to water column in tank\[(P)\] \[\therefore \] \[P=P-{{P}_{0}}=3-1=2\,\text{atm}\] or        \[h\rho g=2\times {{10}^{5}}\] or        \[h\times {{10}^{3}}\times 10=2\times {{10}^{5}}\] or        \[h=20\,cm\] Hence, velocity of water coming from hole i.e., velocity of efflux, is  \[v=\sqrt{2gh}=\sqrt{2\times 10\times 20}\] \[=\sqrt{400}\,m{{s}^{-1}}\]
