Answer:
34.64 cm
Explanation:
Given that:
The depth of the hole h = 10 cm
height of the water holding in the tank H = 40 cm
For a stream of flowing water, the distance (x) at which the stream strikes the floor can be computed by using the formula;
[tex]x = 2 \sqrt{h(H-h)}[/tex]
[tex]x = 2 \sqrt{10(40-10)}[/tex]
[tex]x = 2 \sqrt{10(30)}[/tex]
[tex]x = 2 \sqrt{300}[/tex]
[tex]x = 2 \times 17.32[/tex]
x = 34.64 cm
