Consider a water jar of radius R that has water filled up to height H and is kept on a stand of height h (see figure). Through a hole of radius $\displaystyle \mathrm{r}(\mathrm{r} \ll \mathrm{R})$ at its bottom, the water leaks out and the stream of water coming down towards the ground has a shape like a funnel as shown in the figure. If the radius of the cross-section of water stream when it hits the ground is $\displaystyle x$. Then :

Official answer
(3)
$\displaystyle x=\mathrm{r}\left(\frac{\mathrm{H}}{\mathrm{H}+\mathrm{h}}\right)^{\frac{1}{4}}$
