(b)According to Bernoulli's theorem, $h = \frac{{{v^2}}}{{2g}}$
$ \Rightarrow h = \frac{{{{(2.45)}^2}}}{{2 \times 10}} = 0.314 = 31.4\;cm$
 Height of jet coming from orifice
= $31.4 - 10.6 = 20.8\;cm$

    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. $Image$

    $1.$ If the piston is pushed at a speed of $5 \ mms ^{-1}$, the air comes out of the nozzle with a speed of

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

    $2.$ 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

    Two large, identical water tanks, $1$ and $2$ , kept on the top of a building of height $H$, are filled with water up to height $h$ in each tank. Both the tanks contain an identical hole of small radius on their sides, close to their bottom. A pipe of the same internal radius as that of the hole is connected to tank $2$ , and the pipe ends at the ground level. When the water flows the tanks $1$ and $2$ through the holes, the times taken to empty the tanks are $t_1$ and $t_2$, respectively. If $H=\left(\frac{16}{9}\right) h$, then the ratio $t_1 / t_2$ is. . . . .
