A water tank tilled with solar-heated vater at 4OC is io he usen for showers in a field using gravity-driven flow. The system ijichides 35 in of 1.5-cm-diameter galvamzed non piping with four miter bends (9O) without vanes and a wide-opeii globe valve. If water is to flow at a raie of 1.2 Ls through the shower head. delennine how high the water level iii the tank must be from the exil level of the shower. Disiegaid the losses at the entrance and at the shower head, and neglect the effect of the kinetic energy correction factor.

Two vertical tanks, one with circular section 3.0 m in diameter, the other square section 1.33 m x 1.33 m are connected by a short tube ( area is 0.725 sq. cm) near bottom. Initially, the head of oil in the first tank is 4.0 m, while in the second tank the head is 60 cm. After a quick opening of the tube's vlave, find the time for the oil surfaces to equalize. Assume the tube properties to be similar to that orifice, with C= 0.78.
