Problem

A small hole is drilled in the vertical side of an open water tank at a point 1.2 m1.2\,\text{m} above the ground. The water level in the tank is maintained at a height of 2.0 m2.0\,\text{m} above the hole. Neglecting air resistance, find the horizontal distance from the tank at which the water jet strikes the ground. Take g=9.8 m s−2g = 9.8\,\text{m s}^{-2}. a) 3.5 m3.5\,\text{m} b) 3.1 m3.1\,\text{m} c) 2.2 m2.2\,\text{m} d) 2.8 m2.8\,\text{m}
