Landing Location of a Fluid with Different Pressures
In this problem you will have to determine the exit velocity and flow rate of a leak from a tank where the top of the tank is sealed and the air above the fluid is greater than atmospheric pressure

Then you will use that exit velocity to find the horizontal distance traveled by the fluid after it leaves the hole in the tank

The tank is large enough that you can consider the speed of the fluid in the tank as zero

Based on the information presented below, determine the exit velocity of the fluid from the hole in the side of the container

Then find the horizontal displacement (∆x) of the fluid before it hits the ground

Assume the tank is large enough that there is no significant change in the height of the fluid in the tank
