A swimming pool is filled with water. It is 2.50 m tall and 3.00 m in diameter. There is a small 1.00 cm (in diameter) hole in the side of the pool and its 0.50 m below the top. How far from the pool will the water coming out of the hole land?
Homework Equations
The Attempt at a Solution
Here's my attempt using Torricelli's theorem, however I need to use Bernoulli's equation any help is appreciated.
Vx = Sqrt 2g(2.50 - 1.00)
Vx = 5.42 m/s This is the horizontal velocity.
t= sqrt 2h/g = .20 seconds = time water is in air
x = t x Vx
x = 1.11 meters ?
