Two large,identical water tanks,$1$ and $2$,kept on the top of a building of height $H$,are filled with water up to height $h$ in each tank. Both the tanks contain an identical hole of small radius on their sides,close to their bottom. $A$ pipe of the same internal radius as that of the hole is connected to tank $2$,and the pipe ends at the ground level. When the water flows out of tanks $1$ and $2$ through the holes,the times taken to empty the tanks are $t_1$ and $t_2$,respectively. If $H = (16/9) h$,then the ratio $t_1 / t_2$ is:

  • A
    $2$
  • B
    $3$
  • C
    $4$
  • D
    $5$
