A closed cylindrical tank 2m in diameter and 7m high has 3m tall of water and 3m of oil (SG = 0.8). The surface of oil is under a pressure of 40 KPa. The orifice is located at the vertical side of the tank and it is 1m above the bottom of the tank. If the jet strikes the ground 1.5m below the vena contracta and Cv = 0.92, determine a) the theoretical velocity and b) The horizontal distance from the vena contracta to the point where the jet strikes the ground. (This is a multiple answer question. You must have 2 selected choices since there are 3 required answers in the problem)
