2. A cylindrical tank 5 ft high has a constant diameter of 4 ft is full of water. The tank has a hole in its bottom that measures 0.1 ft². All losses are insignificant. How long will it take for the tank to empty? Note that you can NOT assume a static head and constant flow rate because the water head in the tank decreases as the water flows out of the tank.
