    What is the water level of the tank?
    A tank of water sits at the edge of a table of height 2.5 m. The tank springs a very small leak at its base, and water sprays out a distance of 0.6 m from the edge of the table. What is the water level h in the tank? (Assume the tank is open to the air at the top.)
