Water is flowing from a horizontal pipe fixed at a height of $2\,m$ from the ground. If it falls at a horizontal distance of $3\,m$ as shown in the figure,the speed of water when it leaves the pipe is $............\,ms^{-1}$ (take $g=9.8\,ms^{-2}$).

Two particles in the same vertical plane are thrown to strike at the same time. One is thrown from the ground and the other from a height $h$ vertically above it. The ground particle is thrown obliquely with speed $u$ at an angle $\theta$ and achieves a maximum height $H$. The second particle is thrown horizontally with the same speed $u$. What is the maximum height $h$ such that the two particles strike each other in the air?
