Question:

A pump is used to transfer SAE-30 oil from tank A to tank B as shown. The tanks have a diameter of 12 m. The initial depth of the oil in tank A is 20 m, and in tank B the depth is 1 m. The pump delivers a constant head of 60 m. The connecting pipe has a diameter of 20 cm, and the head loss due to friction in the pipe is 20 V 2/2g. Find the time required to transfer the oil from tank A to B; that is, the time required to fill tank B to 20 m depth.
