A rectangular tank of height H sits on a horizontal platform. An arrow pointing upward next to the platform is labeled 'a'. The tank is filled with fluid. A small hole on the right side of the tank is located a distance h below the top surface of the fluid. A stream of water is shown exiting the hole horizontally.
A tank of fluid accelerating upward with a small hole at depth h.
A large, open-top tank is filled with an ideal, incompressible fluid of density \(\rho\) to a total height \(H\). The tank is placed on a platform that begins to accelerate upward with a constant acceleration of magnitude \(a\). A small hole is then opened in the side of the tank at a depth \(h\) below the surface of the fluid. Which of the following is a correct expression for the speed \(v\) of the fluid as it exits the hole, relative to the tank?
