A water hose is used to fill a rectangular tank of width H and height twice as its width. The hose jets out water 45 degrees from the horizontal the same level as the bottom of the tank. If the distance of the hose to the tank is 6 times its width, compute the maximum initial velocity so that the water will still enter the tank. (Express your answers in terms of H.)
