A $U$ -tube of small and uniform cross section contains water of total length $4H$. The height difference between the water columns on the left and on the right is $H$ when the valve $K$ is closed. The valve is suddenly open, and water is flowing from left to right. Ignore friction. The speed of water when the heights of the left and the right water columns are the same, is :-
  • A$\frac{1}{4} \sqrt{gH}$
  • B$\sqrt {\frac{gH}{8}}$
  • C$\frac{1}{2} \sqrt{gH}$
  • D$\sqrt {\frac{gH}{2}}$

    A heavy hollow cone of radius $R$ and height $h$ is placed on a horizontal table surface, with its flat base on the table. The whole volume inside the cone is filled with water of density $\rho$ . The circular rim of the cone’s base has a watertight seal with the table’s surface and the top apex of the cone has a small hole. Neglecting atmospheric pressure find the total upward force exerted by water on the cone is
