A large open tank containing water has two holes to its wall. A square hole of side 'a' is made at a depth 'y' and a circular hole of radius 'r' is made at a depth '16y'from the surface of water. If equal amount of water comes out through both the holes per second, then the relation between 'r' and 'a' will be

The correct answer is: $r=\frac{a}{2 \sqrt{\pi}}$
(A)
$v_{1} A_{1}=v_{2} A_{2}$
$\sqrt{2 g h_{1}} A_{1}=\sqrt{2 g h_{2}} A_{2}$
$\sqrt{y} a^{2}=\sqrt{16} y \pi r^{2}$
$a^{2}=4 \pi r^{2}$
$r=\frac{a}{2 \sqrt{\pi}}$
