A large container is attached to a cart and held by a cable attached to a wall as shown in the figure. The container is filled with water and is open to the atmosphere. Water issues from a horizontal nozzle of cross-sectional area of 5 cm². At the same time, water is added from a vertical pipe so that the water level in the tank is maintained at H = 10 m. Determine the tension in the cable holding the tank in place.
