$A$ tank with vertical walls is mounted so that its base is at a height $H$ above the horizontal ground. The tank is filled with water to a depth $h$. $A$ hole is punched in the side wall of the tank at a depth $x$ below the water surface. To have maximum range of the emerging stream,the value of $x$ is

  • A
    $\frac{H+h}{4}$
  • B
    $\frac{H+h}{2}$
  • C
    $\frac{H+h}{3}$
  • D
    $\frac{3(H+h)}{4}$

In a cylindrical water tank,there are two small holes $A$ and $B$ on the wall. Hole $A$ is at a depth of $h_1$ from the water surface,and hole $B$ is at a height of $h_2$ from the bottom of the tank. The total height of the water surface from the bottom of the tank is $H$. Water coming out from both holes strikes the ground at the same point $S$. Find the ratio of $h_1$ and $h_2$.

$A$ cylinder containing water stands on a table of height $H$. $A$ small hole is punched in the side of the cylinder at its base. The stream of water strikes the ground at a horizontal distance $R$ from the table. Then the depth of water in the cylinder is ............

$A$ large tank is filled with water (density $= 10^3 \ kg/m^3$). $A$ small hole is made at a depth $10 \ m$ below the water surface. The range of water issuing out of the hole is $R$ on the ground. What extra pressure must be applied on the water surface so that the range becomes $2R$? (Take $1 \ atm = 10^5 \ Pa$ and $g = 10 \ m/s^2$)
