I need help on this problem:
A pipe discharges storm water into a creek. Water flows horizontally out of the pipe at 1.9m/s, and the end of the pipe is 3.5m above the creek.
How far out from the end of the pipe is the point where the stream of water meets the creek?
Express your answer with the appropriate units.
Water flows out of a spicket that is .6 m above the ground. The water height is 30 cm above the height of the spicket. How far will the water travel horizontally before it hits the ground?

- A garden hose is laying on the ground while the valve is opened. The nozzle of the hose is shooting the water upwards in an angle of 21°. The initial speed of the water spray is 20 m/s. There is a wall 8.0 m away. How high on the wall the water spray hits?arrow_forwardFiremen are shooting a stream of water at a burning build- ing using a high-pressure hose that shoots out the water with a speed of 25.0 m/s as it leaves the end of the hose. Once it leaves the hose, the water moves in projectile motion. The firemen adjust the angle of elevation a of the hose until the water takes 3.00 s to reach a building 45.0 m away. You can ignore air resistance; assume that the end of the hose is at ground level. (a) Find the angle of elevation a. (b) Find the speed and acceleration of the water at the highest point in its trajectory. (c) How high above the ground does the water strike the building, and how fast is it moving just before it hits the building?arrow_forwardA truck travels due east for a distance of 1.7 km, turns around and goes due west for 9.2 km and finally turns around again and travels 3.0 km due east. a) what is the total distance that the truck travels? b) what are the magnitude and direction of the trucks displacement ?arrow_forwardA water park is designing a new water slide that finishes with the rider flying horizontally off the bottom of the slide. The slide is designed to end 1.2 m above the water level, and the average rider is estimated to leave the bottom of the slide at 25 m/s. How far will the rider fly through the air before hitting the water?arrow_forwardA landscape architect is planning an artificial waterfall in a city park.

(Assume the water must land 2 m from the wall to provide adequate space for a person to walk beneath the waterfall.) Yes or No ?

If a house near the holding tank was on fire, to what height would firefighters have to drain the tank so water sprayed from the bottom of the tank hits the top of the house at its center, 10.0 m above the ground and 12.0 m away? QUESTION 2 Consider the water tank from the previous question. What is the speed (in m/s) of the water as it leaves the bottom of the tank? QUESTION 3 Assume the tank from the previous questions is sealed airtight with an air gap between the water's surface and the top of the tank. The air pressure in the air gap is 25.0 kPa, while atmospheric pressure outside the tank is 101.4 kPa. Assuming the velocity of the water level in the tank is effectively zero, to what height will firefighters now need to drain the tank so water hits the burning house?
