Detailed Solution

The speed at which liquid exits a hole, or velocity of efflux, is equal to 2gh, where h is the depth of the hole below the liquid surface, according to Torricelli's Theorem. Thus, the amount of water ejected is independent of the size of the hole or the liquid's density.

Hence the correct answer is a and b are correct.
