A container of water has a cross-sectional area of Ac=0.25m2. A piston with mass mp=18kg, sits on top of the water as shown in Figure 1. The height of the water which the piston is sitting on is h1=0.45m. There is a spout located h2=0.17m from the bottom of the tank, open to the atmosphere, and a stream of water exits the spout. The cross-sectional area of the spout is As=8.5 x 10-3m2. A valve on the spout is closed. How much force is the water in the spout exerting on the valve?
