Water flows into a tank and out through another pipe, as shown in the figure below. The water in the tank has a surface area, Asurf= 6 m^2. At the bottom of the tank there is a door inclined at an angle θ= 40 degrees with respect to the horizontal. The door has a length L=1.1 m and a width w=1 m (out of the page).
