Q. A tank containing liquid has an orifice in one vertical side. If the center of orifice is $19.6 m$ below the surface level in the tank. Find the velocity of discharge assuming that is no wastage of energy.

Mechanical Properties of Fluids

Solution:

Velocity at orifice
$=\sqrt{2 gh }=\sqrt{2 \times 9.8 \times 19.6}$
$=19.6 m / s$
