From Bernoulli's theorem,

${P_0} + \frac{1}{2}\rho v_1^2\rho gh = {P_0} + \frac{1}{2}\rho v_2^2 + 0$

${v_2} = \sqrt {v_1^2 + 2gh}  = \sqrt {0.16 + 2 \times 10 \times 0.2}  = 2.03m/s$

From equation of continuity

${A_2}{v_2} = {A_1}{v_1}$

$\pi \frac{{D_2^2}}{4} \times {v_2} = \pi \frac{{D_1^2}}{4}{v_1}$

$ \Rightarrow {D_1} = {D_2}\sqrt {\frac{{{v_1}}}{{{v_2}}}}  = 3.55 \times {10^{ - 3}}m$

    A cubical box of wine has a small spout located in one of the bottom corners. When the box is full and placed on a level surface, opening the spout results in a flow of wine with a initial speed of $v_0$ (see figure). When the box is half empty, someone tilts it at $45^o $ so that the spout is at the lowest point (see figure). When the spout is opened the wine will flow out with a speed of
