    A cylindrical vessel of height $500 \mathrm{~mm}$ has an orifice (small hole) at its bottom. The orifice is initially closed and water is filled in it up to height $\mathrm{H}$. Now the top is completely sealed with a cap and the orifice at the bottom is opened. Some water comes out from the orifice and the water level in the vessel becomes steady with height of water column being $200 \mathrm{~mm}$. Find the fall in height (in ${m m}$ ) of water level due to opening of the orifice.

    |Take atmospheric pressure $=1.0 \times 10^5 \mathrm{~N} / \mathrm{m}^2$, density of water $=1000 \mathrm{~kg} / \mathrm{m}^3$ and $g=10 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^2$. Neglect any effect of surface tension.]

    Fountains usually seen in gardens are generated by a wide pipe with an enclosure at one end having many small holes. Consider one such fountain which is produced by a pipe of internal diameter $2$ $cm$ in which water flows at a rate $3$ $ms^{^{-1}}$. The enclosure has $100$ holes each of diameter $0.05$ $cm$. The velocity of water coming out of the holes ids ( in $ms^{^{-1}}$)
