The apparent depth of water in a cylindrical water tank of diameter $2R \, cm$ is reducing at the rate of $x \, cm/minute$ when water is being drained out at a constant rate. The amount of water drained in $c.c./minute$ is ($n_1 =$ refractive index of air,$n_2 =$ refractive index of water).

  • A
    $x \pi R^2 n_1/n_2$
  • B
    $x \pi R^2 n_2/n_1$
  • C
    $2x \pi R n_1/n_2$
  • D
    $\pi R^2 x$
