Problem

A cylindrical tank has a small orifice of area

2.0\times10^{-4}\,\text{m}^2

in its vertical side wall at a depth of

1.6\,\text{m}

below the water surface. Determine the volume flow rate of water through the hole. Take

g = 9.8\,\text{m s}^{-2}

. (a)

7.92\times10^{-4}\,\text{m}^3\,\text{s}^{-1}

(b)

2.24\times10^{-3}\,\text{m}^3\,\text{s}^{-1}

(c)

1.12\times10^{-3}\,\text{m}^3\,\text{s}^{-1}

(d)

6.72\times10^{-4}\,\text{m}^3\,\text{s}^{-1}
