Question
Water flows out from a large tank of cross-sectional area 𝑨𝒕 = 𝟏 m2 through a small rounded orifice of cross-sectional area 𝑨𝒐 = 𝟏 cm² , located at 𝒚 = 𝟎. Initially the water level, measured from 𝒚 = 𝟎, is 𝑯 = 𝟏 m. The acceleration due to gravity is 9.8 m/s² . Neglecting any losses, the time taken by water in the tank to reach a level of 𝒚 = 𝑯/𝟒 is _______________ seconds (round off to one decimal place).
Answer :
Correct answer is : 4517.54
A = 1 m2, Ao = 1 cm2 = 10-4 m2, g = 9.8m/s2, Hi = 1 m, Hf = 0.25
Using equation (i)
t = 2258.8 s
