A vertical tank, open at the top, is filled with a liquid and rests on a smooth horizontal surface.$A$ small hole is opened at the centre of one side of the tank. The area of cross-section of the tank is $N$ times the area of the hole, where $N$ is a large number. Neglect mass of the tank itself. The initial acceleration of the tank is

We know that force exerted by fluid coming out on the container is $\rho A v^{2}$

$\mathrm{v}=$ velocity of fluid

$v=\sqrt{2 g \frac{H}{2}}$

$A=$ area of the hole

Acceleration of the tank

$=\frac{\rho \mathrm{Av}^{2}}{\rho(\mathrm{NAH})}$

$=\frac{\rho(\mathrm{AgH})}{\rho \mathrm{NAH}}=\frac{\mathrm{g}}{\mathrm{N}}$

    A spray gun is shown in the figure where a piston pushes air out of a nozzle. A thin tube of uniform cross section is connected to the nozzle. The other end of the tube is in a small liquid container. As the piston pushes air through the nozzle, the liquid from the container rises into the nozzle and is sprayed out. For the spray gun shown, the radii of the piston and the nozzle are $20 \ mm$ and $1 \ mm$ respectively. The upper end of the container is open to the atmosphere. $Image$

    $(A)$ $0.1 \ ms ^{-1}$ $(B)$ $1 \ ms ^{-1}$ $(C)$ $2 \ ms ^{-1}$ $(D)$ $8 \ ms ^{-1}$

    $2.$ If the density of air is $\rho_{ a }$ and that of the liquid $\rho_{\ell}$, then for a given piston speed the rate (volume per unit time) at which the liquid is sprayed will be proportional to
