Solution

The correct option is B 32cm/sec
The height difference between the points x and y is 5.1 mm

Therefore, the pressure difference between the 2 points will be,

P=ρgh

P=1×1000×0.51

P = 510

Applying Bernoulli's theorem,

δP+0.5ρδv2=0

δP=510

510=0.5×1×(v2222)

Hence, v22=1024 or v2=32cm/sec
