$A$ water barrel stands on a table of height $h$. If a small hole is punched in the side of the barrel at its base,it is found that the resultant stream of water strikes the ground at a horizontal distance $R$ from the barrel. The depth of water in the barrel is

  • A
    $\frac{R}{2}$
  • B
    $\frac{R^2}{4h}$
  • C
    $\frac{R^2}{h}$
  • D
    $\frac{h}{2}$

There is a hole at the bottom of a water tank. The total pressure at the bottom is $3 \, atm$ $(1 \, atm = 10^{5} \, N/m^{2})$. What is the velocity of the water coming out of the hole?

$A$ wide cylindrical vessel $50 \ cm$ in height is filled with water and rests on a table. Assuming the viscosity to be negligible, find at what height from the bottom of the vessel a small hole should be made for the water jet coming out of it to hit the surface of the table at the maximum horizontal distance from the vessel.
