The correct answer is: 2 t
The volume of water in the vessel of the base area A and height h isV=Ah. The average velocity of outflowing water when the height of water changes from h to 0 is

v=2 gh+02=2gh2

V=A v t ...(i)

When the vessel is filled to height 4 h, then the volume in the vessel

=4V=4A vt=4A2gh2×t 

If t is the time taken for the outflowing liquid and v1 is the average velocity of outflowing liquid then

4V=A v1t1

or t1=4 VA v1=4 A2gh×t×22×A×2g×4h=2t
