I need help on this problem:
A pipe discharges storm water into a creek. Water flows horizontally out of the pipe at 1.9m/s, and the end of the pipe is 3.5m above the creek.
How far out from the end of the pipe is the point where the stream of water meets the creek?
Express your answer with the appropriate units.
If a water particle in a stream of water in a fountain takes 0.35s to travel from spout to receptacle when shot at an angle of 67 degrees and an initial speed of 5.0 m/s, what is the vertical distance between the levels of the fountain.
