A large open tank containing water has two holes to its wall. A square hole of side 'a' is made at a depth 'y' and a circular hole of radius 'r' is made at a depth '16y'from the surface of water. If equal amount of water comes out through both the holes per second, then the relation between 'r' and 'a' will be
  1. $r=\frac{2 a}{\pi}$
  2. $r=\frac{a}{2 \sqrt{\pi}}$
  3. $r=\frac{a}{2 \pi}$
  4. $r=\frac{2 a}{\sqrt{\pi}}$

Solution

$v_{1} A_{1}=v_{2} A_{2}$ $\sqrt{2 g h_{1}} A_{1}=\sqrt{2 g h_{2}} A_{2}$ $\sqrt{y} a^{2}=\sqrt{16} y \pi r^{2}$ $a^{2}=4 \pi r^{2}$ $r=\frac{a}{2 \sqrt{\pi}}$
