The discharge through a wholly drowned orifice is given by (where H1 = Height of water (on the upstream side) above the top of the orifice, H2 = Height of water (on the downstream side) above the bottom of the orifice, and H = Difference between two water levels on either side of the orifice)

H2 = Height of water (downstream) above the BOTTOM of the orifice.
H1 = Height of water (upstream) above the TOP of the orifice.
H2 - H1 = Height of the orifice (which indicates the area of the orifice occupied).
H = Difference in water level, which regulates the velocity of the fluid through the orifice.

What is the difference between [c] and [d]?
H2-H1= H.
H2-H1= H.
