The liquid emerges into a vertical jet as it drains from the container, with the velocity profile in the jet remaining uniform. The outlet of the container is located 2.0 m above ground, and the radius of the emerging liquid jet changes with vertical distance from the bottom of the container as it accelerates under the action of gravity. Neglecting viscous losses and surface tension effects in the liquid jet, what is the velocity of the water jet as it strikes the ground when the container begins to drain

Answer:

6.26 m/s

Explanation:

Since we are neglecting viscous losses and surface tension effects in the liquid jet, by conservation of energy, the potential energy loss of the jet = kinetic energy gain of the jet

So, mgh = 1/2mv² where m = mass of water in jet, g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s², h = height of outlet = 2.0 mand v = velocity of liquid jet

So, mgh = 1/2mv²

gh = 1/2v²

v² = 2gh

v = √(2gh)

v = √(2 × 9.8 m/s² × 2.0 m)

v = √(39.2 m²/s²)

v = 6.26 m/s
