Question

A cylindrical tank of diameter D contains liquid to an initial height h0 . At time t 5 0 a small stopper of diameter d is removed from the bottom. Using Bernoullis equation with no losses, derive ( a ) a differential equation for the freesurface height h ( t ) during draining and ( b ) an expression for the time t0 to drain the entire tank

Solution

Step 1 of 6)

The first step in solving 3 problem number 142 trying to solve the problem we have to refer to the textbook question: A cylindrical tank of diameter D contains liquid to an initial height h0 . At time t 5 0 a small stopper of diameter d is removed from the bottom. Using Bernoullis equation with no losses, derive ( a ) a differential equation for the freesurface height h ( t ) during draining and ( b ) an expression for the time t0 to drain the entire tank
From the textbook chapter Pressure Distribution in a Fluid you will find a few key concepts needed to solve this.
