There are two holes, one each along the opposite sides of a wide rectangular tank. The cross-section of each hole is $0.01 \,m^2$ and the vertical distance between the holes is $1 \,m$. The tank is filled with water. The net force on the tank in newton when the water flows out of the holes is (Density of water $= 1000 \,kg/m^3$, $g = 10 \,m/s^2$)
