An open tank filled with water has a hole at its bottom. If the total pressure at the bottom of the tank is 2 atmospheres, the velocity of efflux is (nearly) (1atmosphere=105Nm2)

a
30 ms−1
b
20 ms−1
c
14 ms−1
d
9.8 ms−1

detailed solution

Correct option is B

Liquid pressure =P=hdg⇒2×105=h×103×9.8 h=2×1059.8×103Velocity efflux=2gh=2×9.8×2×1059.8×103=4×102vefflux=400=20m/sec
