Question

Toricelli’s theorem is used to find(a) the velocity of efflux through an orifice.(b) the velocity of flow of liquid through a pipe.(c) terminal velocity(d) critical velocity

Answer 1

Toricelli's Theorem is used to find out the velocity of an efflux through an orifice where the area of the escape orifice is considered to be negligible in comparison to the area of the cross section of the container ,

The velocity of the efflux can be found out by applying Bernoulli's equation for the same liquid in the container.
