There are two identical small holes of cross-sectional area $a$ on the opposite sides of a tank containing a liquid of density $\rho$. The difference in height between the holes is $h$. The tank is resting on a smooth horizontal surface. The horizontal force that must be applied to the tank to keep it in equilibrium is

  • A
    $gh\rho a$
  • B
    $\frac{2gh}{\rho a}$
  • C
    $2\rho agh$
  • D
    $\frac{\rho gh}{a}$

Water flows out of a hole on the side of a bucket and follows a parabolic path. If the bucket falls freely under gravity, ignoring air resistance, the water flow

$A$ cubical box of wine has a small spout located in one of the bottom corners. When the box is full and placed on a level surface,opening the spout results in a flow of wine with an initial speed of $v_0$ (see figure). When the box is half empty,someone tilts it at $45^{\circ}$ so that the spout is at the lowest point (see figure). When the spout is opened,the wine will flow out with a speed of
