Answer:
Explanation:
A ) radius of tank r = 1.2 m
depth of water in the tank = 2 m
1 gal of water = 1 / 264.17 m³
= 3.785 x 10⁻³ m³
Let h be the change in height of water in the tank .
volume of water flowing out
= π r² x h = 3.785 x 10⁻³
3.14 x 1.2² x h = 3.785 x 10⁻³
h = 83.71 x 10⁻⁵ m
= .84 mm .
B )
change in height is negligible .
velocity of efflux of water from the hole at the bottom
v = √ 2 gh
h is height of water level which is 2 m
v = √ (2 x 9.8 x 2 )
= 6.26 m / s
radius of hole = .3 x 10⁻² m
area of cross section
= π r²
= 3.14 x ( .3 x 10⁻² )²
= 28.26 x 10⁻⁶ m²
volume of water flowing through the hole per unit area
= area of cross section x velocity of efflux
= 28.26 x 10⁻⁶ x 6.26
If t be the time required ,
28.26 x 10⁻⁶ x 6.26 x t = 3.785 x 10⁻³
t = 21.4 s
