Question

b. The stream of water flowing through a hole at depth h = 10 cm in a tank holding water to height H = 40 cm. . 3 At what distance x does the stream strike the floor?​

Answer 1

Answer:

34.64 cm

Explanation:

Given that:

The depth of the hole h = 10 cm

height of the water holding in the tank H = 40 cm

For a stream of flowing water, the distance (x) at which the stream strikes the floor can be  computed by using the formula;

$x = 2 \sqrt{h(H-h)}$

$x = 2 \sqrt{10(40-10)}$

$x = 2 \sqrt{10(30)}$

$x = 2 \sqrt{300}$

$x = 2 \times 17.32$

x = 34.64 cm
