Question: Both tanks in the figure below have a liquid depth z . Tank ( a ) discharges a jet of diameter D through the rounded

Both tanks in the figure below have a liquid depth z. Tank (a) discharges a jet of diameter
D through the rounded orifice from whence it falls freely, whereas tank (b) has a pipe with
rounded entrance connected to it, and after a length L, it discharges a jet, also of diameter
D. Which of the two systems has greater discharge through it? In answering this question,
first compare the velocities and discharges at points 1 and 2 in system (a) with
corresponding points in system (b).
 Both tanks in the figure below have a liquid depth z.
