What is the formula for calculating the discharge (Q) through an orifice based on the area of the orifice (A) and the coefficient of discharge (Cd)?
3. What is the formula for calculating the discharge (Q) through an orifice based on the area of the orifice (A) and the coefficient of discharge (Cd)?
- Q = Cd × A
- Q = A - Cd
- Q = Cd + A
- Q = A / Cd
Answer: A) Q = Cd × A
Explanation:
The formula Q = Cd A, where Cd is the coefficient of discharge and A is the area of the orifice, is used to determine the discharge (Q) using an orifice.
