Answer:

    [tex]\frac{V}{2av}[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

Volume V

Contains N particles

Leaks from a small hole of area A

Generally the equation for Flow rate is given as

Volume Flow Rate  [tex]V_r = A * v[/tex]

Mathematically we find the  time taken to flow half way which is given by

          [tex]\frac{(V/2)}{A*v}[/tex]

Therefore the  time taken is

           [tex]\frac{V}{2av}[/tex]
