Question

a nearsighted sheriff fires at a cattle rustler with his trusty six-shooter.Fortunately for the rustler, the bullet misses him and penetrates the town water tank, causing a leak (a) If the top of the tank is open to the atmosphere, determine the speed at which the water leaves the hole when the water level is 0.490 m above the hole. Correct: Your answer is correct. m/s (b) Where does the stream hit the ground if the hole is 3.25 m above the ground? Can someone just help me with part b) please thank you

Explanation / Answer

we need the velocity from part a, which is v = sqrt(2*9.81*0.49)=3.1 if its 3.25 m from the ground y = y0 + 1/2 a t^2 0 = 3.25 + 0.5*-9.81*t^2 t=0.814 s x = x0 + v0x t x = 3.1*0.814=2.52 m
