Water is stored in a pressurised container at a height HT= 8.4 m. It then moves through a horizontal pipe which has a height HP= 0.2 m off the ground. A fault occurs, and the water in the pipe is ejected vertically out of a valve, as shown in the figure. The jet reaches a maximum height Hj off the ground. The density of water is ρ=1000 kg/m^3, and the gauge pressure in the tank is pT= 45 kPa. a) Find the maximum height of the jet, Hj (in metres) b) Find the velocity at which the jet leaves the pipe (in m/s)
