Question
**Educational Text for Problem 5.30**

**Concept: Fluid Dynamics and Forces**

In this problem, we are considering a system where water flows from a large tank into a dish as depicted in Figure P5.30. The goal is to determine the forces involved at specific points in the system.

**Scenario Description:**

- **Structure:** The system consists of a tank and a dish positioned below it.
- **Dimensions:**
  - The tank has a height of 10 feet.
  - Water flows through a pipe with a diameter of 0.1 feet.
  - The distance from the tank's outlet to the dish is 12 feet.
  - The dish has a width of 2 feet.

**Problem Statement:**

(a) **Tank Analysis:**
   Determine the tension \( T_1 \) in the cable supporting the tank when the combined weight of the tank and water is \( W_1 \) pounds.

(b) **Dish Analysis:**
   Determine the force \( F_2 \) required to support the dish when the combined weight of the dish and water is \( W_2 \) pounds.

**Diagram Explanation:**

- **Figure P5.30:**
  - The tank is shown suspended from a point where a cable exerts an upward tension \( T_1 \).
  - Water flows downward through a small diameter outlet and continues vertically for 12 feet before entering the dish.
  - The dish is positioned below, experiencing an upward force \( F_2 \) needed to maintain its stability and support the water flow.

This problem combines principles of fluid dynamics, hydrostatic forces, and tension analysis. Understanding these principles will allow for calculating the necessary forces in practical applications involving fluid transfer and structural support.
