Answer

Given:

Area of cross section = 12 cm2

Speed of water = 20 cm/s

Volume of water flowing out per second = Area of cross section x speed of water

= 12 x 20 cm3

= 240 cm3/s

Volume of water flowing out per minute = 240 x 60 cm3

= 14,400 cm3

= 0.0144 m3

The total volume of water flowing out in one minute is 0.0144 m3.

Hence, option 1 is the correct option.
