A closed tank has an orifice 0.025m diameter in one of its vertical sides. The tank contains oil to a depth of 0.61m above the center of the orifice and the pressure in the air space above the oil is maintained at 13780 N/m^2 above atmospheric. Determine the discharge from the orifice. (Coefficient of discharge of the orifice is 0.61, relative density of oil is 0.9). O a. 1.85 L/s O b. 2.05 L/s O c. 1.75 L/s O d. 1.95 L/s
