Please anybody tell me its formula.

Rishabh said:   8 years ago
The Correct option is A.

Q = Cd * b * (H2-H1)/2gh.

Mohan said:   8 years ago
Cd*a* √(2g(h2-h1)).

Raz said:   6 years ago
A is the correct answer.

Kailash said:   4 years ago
Which is correct A or B? Explain, please.

Anonymous said:   4 years ago
B) is the correct answer.

Because;
Discharge from Orifice
Q = a.Cd. √2gh.

B) is correct.

Q=Cd*a* √(2g(h2-h1)).
a = area of orifice.
Cd = coefficient of disharge.
h1 & h2= difference in elevation of water surface.

The given answer is right,

Q = Cd * a * (√/2gh/), where h=difference in water level,
