Problem

A tank rests on a platform so that the base of the tank is 0.75 m0.75\,\text{m} above the ground. A small horizontal hole is drilled in the side wall 0.75 m0.75\,\text{m} above the platform and 1.50 m1.50\,\text{m} below the water surface. Neglecting air resistance, how far horizontally from the tank will the stream of water land on the ground? (a) 2.1 m2.1\,\text{m} (b) 3.0 m3.0\,\text{m} (c) 1.5 m1.5\,\text{m} (d) 3.7 m3.7\,\text{m}
