A 3-m-diameter tank is initially filled with water 2 m above the center of a sharp-edged 10-cmdiameter orifice. The tank water surface is open to the atmosphere, and the orifice drains to the atmosphere through a 100-m-long pipe. The friction coefficient of the pipe can be taken to be 0.015 and the effect of the kinetic energy correction factor can be neglected. Someone suggests that it makes no difference whether the pump is located at the beginning or at the...

The water needs of a small farm are to be met by pumping water from a well that can supply water continuously at a rate of 5 L/s. The water level in the well is 20 m below the ground level, and water is to be pumped to a large tank on a hill, which is 58 m above the ground level of the well, using 6-cm internal diameter plastic pipes. The required length of piping is measured to be...

Problem 2 A 30,000 litre water tank has a 4.30 m internal diameter. It has two outlet pipes, one at the base of the tank and one higher up. The distance between the two outlets means that when the water level is at the height of the upper pipe there is still 8,000 litres of water remaining in the tank for fire-fighting if needed. The top portion of the tank is used for stock drinking water. a) If the tank...
