Question

Suppose that two tanks, 1 and 2, each with a large opening at the top, contain different liquids. A small hole is made in the side of each tank at the same depth hh below the liquid surface, but the hole in tank 1 has half the cross-sectional area of the hole in tank 2. What is the ratio RV1/RV2R_{V 1} / R_{V 2} of the volume flow rates from the two tanks?

Given:

  • The ratio of the densities ρ1/ρ2=2\rho_1/ \rho_2=2
  • The mass flow rate is equal for both fluids.

Required:

  • In this problem, we are asked to find the ratio of the volume flow rates RV1/RV2R_{\text{V1}}/R_{\text{V2}}
