Explanation / Answer


A) using law of conservation of energy

energy at the top = energy at the surface of water


(m*g*h) = (0.5*m*v^2)


m cancels

(g*h) = (0.5*v^2)

(9.81*3.55) = (0.5*v^2)

v = 8.34 m/s


B) using law of conservation of energy

energy at the top = energy at the surface of water


(m*g*h)+(0.5*m*u^2) = (0.5*m*v^2)

m cancels


(9.8*3.55)+(0.5*3^2) = (0.5*v^2)

v = 8.86 m/s
