The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to determine the speed of water flowing out of the orifice after a heavy solid cylinder is placed inside the tank. We'll follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Initial Conditions**: - The tank has a height \( H \) and base area \( A \). - Initially, the tank is half-filled with water, so the height of the water column \( h = \frac{H}{2} \). 2. **Volume of Water Before the Cylinder is Added**: - The volume of water in the tank before the cylinder is added can be calculated as: \[ V_{\text{initial}} = A \cdot \left(\frac{H}{2}\right) = \frac{AH}{2} \] 3. **Volume of the Cylinder**: - The cylinder has a base area of \( \frac{A}{3} \) and height \( H \). Thus, the volume of the cylinder is: \[ V_{\text{cylinder}} = \frac{A}{3} \cdot H \] 4. **Volume of Water After the Cylinder is Added**: - When the cylinder is submerged, it displaces some water. The new effective height of the water column can be denoted as \( h' \). - The remaining volume of water in the tank after the cylinder is submerged can be expressed as: \[ V_{\text{final}} = A \cdot h' = A \cdot \left(H - \frac{A}{3} \cdot H\right) \] - The volume of water must remain constant, so: \[ V_{\text{initial}} = V_{\text{final}} + V_{\text{cylinder}} \] 5. **Setting Up the Equation**: - We can set up the equation: \[ \frac{AH}{2} = A \cdot h' + \frac{A}{3}H \] - Simplifying this, we can cancel \( A \) from both sides: \[ \frac{H}{2} = h' + \frac{H}{3} \] 6. **Solving for \( h' \)**: - Rearranging gives: \[ h' = \frac{H}{2} - \frac{H}{3} \] - To combine these fractions, we find a common denominator (which is 6): \[ h' = \frac{3H}{6} - \frac{2H}{6} = \frac{H}{6} \] 7. **Using Torricelli's Law**: - According to Torricelli's law, the speed of fluid flowing out of an orifice under the influence of gravity is given by: \[ v = \sqrt{2gh} \] - Here, \( h \) is the height of the water column above the orifice, which is now \( h' = \frac{H}{6} \): \[ v = \sqrt{2g \cdot \frac{H}{6}} = \sqrt{\frac{gH}{3}} \] ### Final Answer: The speed of water flowing out of the orifice after the cylinder is placed inside the tank is: \[ v = \sqrt{\frac{gH}{3}} \]
