Neglecting head loss, calculate the velocity of the water as it leaves the pipe. (Please round-off final answer to the nearest whole number) In Lake Geneva (Switzerland), there is a water jet (called the Jet d’Eau) that is discharged 130 m straight upward (measured from the surface of the lake). The exit of the discharge pipe is 20 cm in diameter.
