There is a hole at the bottom of a water tank. The total pressure at the bottom is $3 \, atm$ $(1 \, atm = 10^{5} \, N/m^{2})$. What is the velocity of the water coming out of the hole?

  • A
    $\sqrt{400} \, m/s$
  • B
    $\sqrt{600} \, m/s$
  • C
    $\sqrt{60} \, m/s$
  • D

$A$ large storage tank, open to the atmosphere at the top and filled with water, develops a small hole in its side at a point $20.0 \ m$ below the water level. If the rate of flow from the hole is $3.08 \times 10^{-5} \ m^3 s^{-1}$, then the diameter of the hole is (Take $g = 10 \ m s^{-2}$): (in $mm$)

$A$ cylindrical tank has a hole of $1 \, cm^2$ in its bottom. If water is allowed to flow into the tank from a tube above it at the rate of $70 \, cm^3/sec$, then the maximum height up to which water can rise in the tank is .......... $cm$.

Two large,identical water tanks,$1$ and $2$,kept on the top of a building of height $H$,are filled with water up to height $h$ in each tank. Both the tanks contain an identical hole of small radius on their sides,close to their bottom. $A$ pipe of the same internal radius as that of the hole is connected to tank $2$,and the pipe ends at the ground level. When the water flows out of tanks $1$ and $2$ through the holes,the times taken to empty the tanks are $t_1$ and $t_2$,respectively. If $H = (16/9) h$,then the ratio $t_1 / t_2$ is:

$A$ container of large uniform cross-sectional area $A$ is resting on a horizontal surface and holds two immiscible,non-viscous,and incompressible liquids of densities $d$ and $2d$,each of height $\frac{H}{2}$,as shown. The upper surface of the liquid with lower density is open to the atmosphere. $A$ small hole is made on the wall of the container at height $h$ $(h < \frac{H}{2})$. The initial speed of efflux of the liquid at the hole is:
