A large open tank has two holes in the wall. One is a square hole of side L at a depth y from the top and the other is a circular hole of radius R at a depth 4 y from the top. When the tank is completely filled with water, the quantities of water flowing out per second from the two holes are the same. Then value of R is
Options
- AL 2
- B2 L
- CL 2
- DL 2
Correct answer
A. L 2
Step-by-step solution
By the principle of continuity A₁ v₁=A₂ v₂ According to question, A₁=L^2 aligned & v₁= 2 g y & and & A₂= R^2 & v₂= 2 g 4 y & L^2 2 g y = R^2 2 g 4 y & aligned or L^2=2 R^2 or R= L 2
