A tank's water level is 30 metres above ground level. A hose is attached to the tank's bottom, and the nozzle at the hose's end is pointed straight up. The water surface is open to the atmosphere, and the tank is at sea level. A pump is installed in the line that runs from the tank to the nozzle, increasing the water pressure. Determine the minimum pressure rise given by the pump to the water line if the water jet rise to a height of 35 metres above the ground.
