Q72 / 90 · JEE Main 2021 (27 Jul Shift 1) · Physics

A light cylindrical vessel is kept on a horizontal surface. Area of the base is A. A hole of cross-sectional area a is made just at its bottom side. The minimum coefficient of friction necessary to prevent sliding the vessel due to the impact force of the emerging liquid is

Figure

  • A
    A2a
  • B
    None of these
  • Correct answer
    C
    2aA
  • D
    aA

Solution

For no sliding  

f≥ρav2
μmg≥ρav2
μρAhg≥ρa2gh
μ≥2aA

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'C'.
