Answer:
The maximum height reached by the water is 117.55 m.
Explanation:
Given;
initial velocity of the water, u = 48 m/s
at maximum height the final velocity will be zero, v = 0
the water is going upwards, i.e in the negative direction of gravity, g = -9.8 m/s².
The maximum height reached by the water is calculated as follows;
v² = u² + 2gh
where;
h is the maximum height reached by the water
0 = u² + 2gh
0 = (48)² + ( 2 x -9.8 x h)
0 = 2304 - 19.6h
19.6h = 2304
h = 2304 / 19.6
h = 117.55 m
Therefore, the maximum height reached by the water is 117.55 m.
<span>According to Newton's first law of motion:
-- objects at rest will remain at rest unless acted upon by an outside force
-- objects in motion will remain in motion unless acted upon by an outside force

First, we determine the volume of the trunk by finding
first the radius from the circumference through the equation,
<span> C
= 2πr</span>
<span> r
= C/2π</span>
Substituting the known values,
<span> r
= 4.5/2π = 0.716 m</span>
Then, we calculate for the volume through the equation,
<span> V
= πr2h</span>
<span> V
= π(0.716 m)2(8m) = 12.9 m3</span>
Multiplying the calculated value to the density will give
the mass as,
<span> Mass
= (12.9 m3)(752 kg/m3) = <span>9699.36 kg</span></span>
