Question:

Consider the stepped cylindrical tank shown in the sketch below. The tank is initially filled with water (ρ = 997 kg/m3) to a height of 0.7 m. A plug in the bottom of the tank is quickly removed and water begins to flow from the 6-mm-diameter hole. The velocity of the exiting water relates to the instantaneous height of the water in the tank, h(t), as V = 0.98 [2gh(t)]1/2, where g is the gravitational acceleration (9.807 m/s2). Estimate  time required to drain the tank.image
