Rate of flow $\mathrm{Q}=\mathrm{Av}$

$\mathrm{v}=\frac{\mathrm{Q}}{\mathrm{A}}=\frac{100 \times 10^{-6}}{0.25}=4 \times 10^{-4} \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}$

$=0.4\, {mm} / \mathrm{s}$

    A cubical box of wine has a small spout located in one of the bottom corners. When the box is full and placed on a level surface, opening the spout results in a flow of wine with a initial speed of $v_0$ (see figure). When the box is half empty, someone tilts it at $45^o $ so that the spout is at the lowest point (see figure). When the spout is opened the wine will flow out with a speed of
