Chapter 6, Problem 60P
The water level in a large tank is maintained at height H above the surrounding level terrain. A rounded nozzle placed in the side of the tank discharges a horizontal jet. Neglecting friction, determine the height h at which the orifice should be placed so the water strikes the ground at the maximum horizontal distance X from the tank. Plot jet speed V and distance X as functions of h (0 < h < H).

A jet issues without loss from a hole in a water tank that is open to the atmosphere. The hole is located a distance H below the free surface, and the jet issues at an angle θ to the horizontal direction, and it has an exit area of A. Express the maximum height of the jet as a function of θ and H (which is held constant). What is the the horizontal component of the force exerted on the tank by the jet? Ignore losses.
A shallow circular dish has a sharp-edged orifice at its center. A water jet, of speed V, strikes the dish
concentrically. Obtain an expression for the external force needed to hold the dish in place if the jet issuing
from the orifice also has speed V. Evaluate the force (in N) for V= 3.2 m/s,
