The water is filled upto height of \(12\, {m}\) in a tank having vertical sidewalls. A hole is made in one of the walls at a depth \('{h}'\) below the water level. The value of \('h'\) for which the emerging stream of water strikes the ground at the maximum range is \(.....\,{m}\).
Pick an option to check your answer.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(D) \(6\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(R =\sqrt{2 gh } \times \sqrt{\frac{(12- h ) \times 2}{ g }}\)
\(\sqrt{4 h (12- h )}= R\)
For maximum \(R\)
\(\frac{ d R }{ dh }=0\)
\(\Rightarrow h =6 \;m\)
