Water Pressure and 2 dimensional motion

AI Thread Summary
The discussion revolves around calculating initial velocity (V_0) in relation to water pressure and two-dimensional motion. The participant references equations for height (H) and pressure (P), indicating a need for additional equations to solve the problem. There is a mention of Bernoulli's principle, suggesting its relevance in fluid dynamics, although there's confusion about its application with uniform density. The conversation highlights the challenge of integrating concepts from physics to arrive at a solution. Ultimately, the need for further clarification on the appropriate equations is emphasized.

Homework Statement
Figure (See below) shows a valve separating a reservoir
from a water tank. If this valve is opened, what
is the maximum height above point B attained by the
water stream coming out of the right side of the tank?
Assume h = 10.0 m, L = 2.00 m, and ## \Theta ## = 30.0°, and
assume the cross-sectional area at A is very large compared
with that at B.
Relevant Equations
H = Vt - g(t^2)/2
F = P A
P = pgh

$$ H = \frac { V^2 - V_0^2 sin \Theta} {-2g} $$
$$ H = \frac {V_0^2 sin \Theta} {2g} $$

So, I need to calculate ## V_0 ##
I'm thinking about pressure.

$$ P = \rho g \Delta h $$
$$ \Delta h = h - L sin \Theta $$

$$ F_A = P S_A $$
$$ F_A = P S_B $$

Dead End here...

Perhaps you need another equation ? Look back in your notes or text ... what are the subjects that might be exercised herer ?
 
Nothing helpful...

Yes endeed, I need another equation/approach. However, I can't figure out which one :/
 
Ever hear of Bernoulli ?

Yes of course.

However, As I understand, Bernouli is used when we have different densities (to "create" "upward" force).
 
Not right. One density cuts the cake just as well.
 
Thread 'Collision of a bullet on a rod-string system: query'
In this question, I have a question. I am NOT trying to solve it, but it is just a conceptual question. Consider the point on the rod, which connects the string and the rod. My question: just before and after the collision, is ANGULAR momentum CONSERVED about this point? Lets call the point which connects the string and rod as P. Why am I asking this? : it is clear from the scenario that the point of concern, which connects the string and the rod, moves in a circular path due to the string...
Thread 'A cylinder connected to a hanged mass'
Let's declare that for the cylinder, mass = M = 10 kg Radius = R = 4 m For the wall and the floor, Friction coeff = ##\mu## = 0.5 For the hanging mass, mass = m = 11 kg First, we divide the force according to their respective plane (x and y thing, correct me if I'm wrong) and according to which, cylinder or the hanging mass, they're working on. Force on the hanging mass $$mg - T = ma$$ Force(Cylinder) on y $$N_f + f_w - Mg = 0$$ Force(Cylinder) on x $$T + f_f - N_w = Ma$$ There's also...
