When a hole is made in the side of a container holding water, water flows out and follows a parabolic trajectory, similar to an object in projectile motion. if the container is dropped in free fall, the water flow:

a. goes out in a straight line
b. curves upward
c. curves downward, but not parabolic
d. stops
e. cannot be predicted because not enough information is given.

d. stops

Explanation:

Since initially, water flows downward in a parabolic trajectory due to gravity. When both container and water is in free fall, they are both subjected to the same gravitational acceleration g. Therefore, water acceleration with respect to the container is zero. Water would stop flowing (with respect to the contained) but it's still falling along with the container.
