JEE PYQ: Mechanical Properties Of Fluids Question 6
Question 6 - 2021 (18 Mar 2021 Shift 2)
Consider a water tank as shown in the figure. It’s cross-sectional area is 0.4 m$^2$. The tank has an opening B near the bottom whose cross-section area is 1 cm$^2$. A load of 24 kg is applied on the water at the top when the height of the water level is 40 cm above the bottom, the velocity of water coming out the opening B is $v$ ms$^{-1}$. The value of $v$, to the nearest integer, is ____. [Take value of $g$ to be 10 ms$^{-2}$]
Show Answer
Answer: 3
Solution
Using Bernoulli’s equation: $\left(P_0 + \frac{mg}{A}\right) + \rho g H + \frac{1}{2}\rho v_1^2 = P_0 + 0 + \frac{1}{2}\rho v^2$ Neglecting $v_1$: $v = \sqrt{2gH + \frac{2mg}{A\rho}} = \sqrt{8 + 1.2} = 3.033$ m/s $\simeq 3$ m/s
