A tank of length 5.9 m and breadth 3.8 m is filled to a depth 2.6 m with a fluid of density 730 kg/m³; above the fluid is an inert gas at an absolute pressure of 123.1 kPa. A 50 mm diameter offtake pipe is fitted to the bottom of the tank. A branch pipe, of 25mm diameter, is connected to the offtake pipe 0.68 m below the bottom of the tank. This branch pipe runs horizontally for a short distance, then rises at 41° to the horizontal for a (hypotenuse) length of 95.9 cm, then rises vertically for 690 mm. Calculate the static pressure (absolute) at the end of the 25mm branch pipe, in kPa to 4 significant figures. Enter your answer here: Number

A tank of length 5.9 m and breadth 3.8 m is filled to a depth 2.6 m with a fluid of density 730 kg/m³; above the fluid is an inert gas at an absolute pressure of
123.1 kPa. A 50 mm diameter offtake pipe is fitted to the bottom of the tank. A branch pipe, of 25mm diameter, is connected to the offtake pipe 0.68 m below
the bottom of the tank. This branch pipe runs horizontally for a short distance, then rises at 41° to the horizontal for a (hypotenuse) length of 95.9 cm, then
rises vertically for 690 mm. Calculate the static pressure (absolute) at the end of the 25mm branch pipe, in kPa to 4 significant figures.
