Physics Question on Pressure
The level of water in a tank is 5m high. A hole of area 1cm2 is made at the bottom of the tank. The rate of leakage of water from the hole in m3/s is (g=10ms−2)
A
10−3
B
10−4
C
10
D
10−2
Answer
10−3
Explanation
Solution
Velocity of water from the hole =2×5×10=10m/s So, Q=AV=1×10−4m2×10m/s = 10−3m3/s
