There are two identical small holes of area of cross-section a on the opposite sides of a tank containing a liquid of density $\rho $. The difference in height between the holes is $h$. Tank is resting on a smooth horizontal surface. Horizontal force which will have to be applied on the tank to keep it in equilibrium is

A
$g\,h\,\rho a$
B
$\frac{{2gh}}{{\rho a}}$
C
$2g\,h\,\rho a$
D
$\frac{{\rho gh}}{a}$
Solution
$F=u \frac{\mathrm{d} m}{\mathrm{dt}}=v \frac{\mathrm{d}}{\mathrm{dt}} \mathrm{a} \rho \ell=\operatorname{apv} \frac{\mathrm{d} \ell}{\mathrm{dt}}=\mathrm{a} \rho \mathrm{v}^{2}$
$F=2 \mathrm{a} \rho \mathrm{gh}$
