Solution
The correct option is C√hg2,P0+3ρhg4 Velocity of the liquid just after coming out of section 3 is v3=√2gh Using continuity equation at section '2' and section '3' A2v2=A4v3v2=12v3=√hg2 Now using Bernoulli's theorem at section 2 and at the opening end of section 3: P0+12ρv32=P2+12ρv22P2=P0+12ρ(v32−v22)=P0+12ρ(2gh−gh2)P2=P0+3ρgh4
