Question

A big container is full of water with height h.  If we make a small opening at height y, find the speed of water flowing from the opening if h = 8 m and y =5 m (in m/s). (assume h is ~ constant)

a)5.40

b)7.70

c)9.80

d)29.4

e)58.8

The image depicts a diagram of a cylindrical container filled with liquid. Two dimensions are highlighted:

1. Height (\(h\)): This is the vertical measurement from the bottom to the top surface of the liquid inside the cylinder.

2. Vertical Distance (\(y\)): This represents the vertical distance from the spout level to the top of the liquid surface, indicating the level of fluid above the exit point.

Beside the cylinder, there’s an arrow demonstrating a path, usually showing the trajectory of liquid flow if it were to exit the cylinder from the point labeled \(y\).
