A cylindrical vessel of cross - section A contains water to a height h.There is a hole in the bottom of radius ' a ' .The time in which it will be emptied is :

Dear student
Let at certain instant of time level of liquid is at a height of x above orifice.Volume of liquid coming out from the orifice =(2gx)×(πa2)volume of liquid descending per second =A×(-dxdt)equating both the volume(2gx)×(πa2)=A×(-dxdt)Ah0dxx=(πa2) 2g0tdt2A×(x)0h=2g×(πa2)×t2A×(x)0h=2g×(πa2)×t2A×(h)=2g×(πa2)×tt=2A(πa2)×h2gt=A(πa2)×2hgRegards
