A doubt

Physics

A Cubical tanker completely filled with water is moving with a constant velocity. A hole develops at the bottom in its horizontal surface due to which water comes out. 4 kg of water leaks out in 30 sec. If the velocity of truck becomes x times its initial velocity, find X.

Of course it has. The Question is based on the conservation of linear momentum. I just dont know how to connect the escape velocity of water with the velocity of the container.

i hope the problem can be dealt with the help of PROJECTILE MOTION THEORY... considering the CONSTANT VERTICLE ACCELRATION n UNIFORM HORIZONTAL VELOCITY.....
