Question:
A tank, placed on the ground, is filled with water up to a height ℎ. A small hole is made at a height ℎ1 such that ℎ1 < ℎ. The water jet emerging from the hole strikes
the ground at a horizontal distance D, as shown schematically in the figure. Which of the following statements is correct? (g is the acceleration due to gravity)

- Velocity at ℎ1 is \(\sqrt{2𝑔ℎ_1}\)
- 𝐷 = 2(ℎ − ℎ1)
- D will be maximum when ℎ1 = \(\frac{2}{3}\) ℎ
- The maximum value of D is h
