Question
A tank of height 15 m and cross-section area 10 m2 is filled with water. There is a small hole of cross-section area ' a ' which is much smaller than the container, located at a height of 12m from the base of the container. How much force should be applied with a piston at the top level, so that the water coming out of the hole hits the ground at a distance of 16 m. (Take density of water =1000 kg / m3)
The correct answer is:
As, range of water jet =16 m.
