Chapter 6, Problem 45P
The weight of a water tank open to the atmosphere is balanced by a counterweight, as shown in Fig. P6- 45. There is a 4-cm hole at the bottom of the tank with a discharge coefficient of 0.90, and water level in the tank is maintained constant at 50 cm by water entering the tank horizontally. Determine how much mass must be added to or removed from the counterweight to maintain balance when the hole at the bottom is opened.

A pump is 2.2 m above the water level in the sump and has a pressure of –20 cm of mercury at the suction side. The suction pipe is of 20 cm diameter and the delivery pipe is short 25 cm diameter pipe ending in a nozzle of 8 cm diameter. If the nozzle is directed vertically upwards at an elevation of 4.2 m above the water sump level, determine the elevation in meters, above the water sump level, to which the jet would reach. Neglect all losses.

A large, cylindrical water tank with diameter 3.20 m is on a platform 2.00 m above the ground. The vertical tank is open to the air and the depth of the water in the tank is 2.00 m. There is a hole with diameter 0.560 cm in the side of the tank just above the bottom of the tank. The hole is plugged with a cork. You remove the cork and collect in a bucket the water that flows out the hole. When 1.00 gal of water flows out of the tank, what is the change in the height of the water in the tank?Express your answer in millimeters. How long does it take you to collect 1.00 gal of water in the bucket?Express your answer in seconds.
