Fluid dynamics
Question

There are two holes, each of cross-sectional area a, on the opposite side of a wide rectangular tank containing a liquid of density ρ. When the liquid flows out of the holes, the net force on the tank is [h is the vertical distance between the two holes.]

Moderate
Solution

F = αv2ρ

Net force

           = αρ(v22-v12) = αρ[2g(h+y)-2gy]

          = 2αρgh
