Fountains usually seen in gardens are generated by a wide pipe with an enclosure at one end having many small holes. Consider one such fountain which is produced by a pipe of internal diameter $2 \ cm$ in which water flows at a rate $3 \ ms^{-1}$. The enclosure has $100$ holes each of diameter $0.05 \ cm$. The velocity of water coming out of the holes is (in $ms^{-1}$):

  • A
    $0.48$
  • B
    $96$
  • C
    $24$
  • D
    $48$
