Water and mercury are filled in two cylindrical vessels up to same height. Both vessels have a hole in the wall near the bottom. The velocity of water and mercury coming out of the holes are u1 and u2 respectively.
A. v1 = v2
B. v1 = 13.6 v2
C. v1 = v2/13.6
D. 
Answer :
The velocity of the fluid in this case is found using equation . This is independent of the density of the fluids. Hence, their velocities are equal.
