Answer:

Correct sentence c) the container depth of the hole.

Step-by-step explanation:

Torricelli's theorem or Torricelli's principle is an application of Bernoulli's principle and studies the flow of a liquid contained in a container, through a small hole, under the action of gravity.

The velocity of a liquid in an open vessel, through a hole, is that of any body, freely falling into a vacuum from the level of the liquid to the center of gravity of the hole.

Mathematically:

Vt=√{ 2×g×(h + ((vo²)/2×g) ) }

Vt is the theoretical liquid velocity at the exit of the hole .

vo is the approach or initial speed.

h is the distance from the surface of the liquid to the center of the hole.

g is the acceleration of gravity.

From here it can be clearly seen that the speed of the water that flows through the hole depends on the depth of the hole with respect to the water level of the container.
