    20. A cylindrical water tower of diameter 3.0 m supplies water to a house. The level of water in the water tower is 35 m above the point where the water enters the house through a pipe that has an inside diameter 5.0 cm. The pressure at the top of the water tower is I ATM and the water in the cylindrical tank flows slowly at a speed of 0.01 cm/s. At what speed does the water flow in the...

    Water flows steadily from a large tank as shown in the figure. The height of water in the tank is H = 4 m represents the height from the centerline of the horizontal pipe to the surface of the water in the tank. The water flows out of the tank through a pipe with diameter of 4 cm. The stream of water flows through a bend (= 30 degrees, L = 2.88 m) and exits as a free jet through...

    A pressurized water tank contains water with a mass density of 62.1 lbm/ft3. The water depth is 10 feet (above ground level) and the tank is pressurized to 28 psia. The tank outlet at ground level is a 4 inch diameter pipe with a closed valve. Atmospheric pressure is at 14.5 psia. If the valve on the 4 inch pipe is opened all the way what will be the initial water flow rate out of the pipe in ft3/s?

    (3 points) A tank of diameter D is filled with water up to a height h above the bottom of the tank (Figure 3). At the bottom of the tank is a hole of diameter d. Assume that the water flows out of the hole with a laminar flow and that the difference in atmospheric pressure between the top and the bottom of the tank is negligible. Figure 3: A tank draining (c) If you no longer assume that the...
