As shown in the figure, a pump is designed as a horizontal cylinder with a piston having area $A$ and an outlet orifice having an area $a$. The piston moves with a constant velocity under the action of force $F$. If the density of the liquid is $\rho$, then the speed of the liquid emerging from the orifice is (assume $A \gg a$):

  • A
    $\sqrt{\frac{F}{\rho A}}$
  • B
    $\frac{a}{A} \sqrt{\frac{F}{\rho A}}$
  • C
    $\sqrt{\frac{2 F}{\rho A}}$
  • D
    $\frac{A}{a} \sqrt{\frac{2 F}{\rho A}}$
