To solve the problem of determining the speed at which water will come out of a tap located 6.0 m below the water level in a tank, we can use Bernoulli's theorem and the principles of fluid mechanics. Here’s a step-by-step solution: ### Step 1: Understand the Setup We have a water tank at a height (H) of 6.0 m above the tap. The pressure above the water level in the tank and at the outlet of the tap is equal to atmospheric pressure. ### Step 2: Apply Bernoulli's Equation According to Bernoulli's theorem, for two points in a fluid flow, we have: \[ ...
