Alarge storage tank, open to the atmosphere at the top and filled with water, develops a small hole in its side at a point 15.6 m below the water level. the rate of flow from the leak is 3.00 10-3 m3/min.
(a) determine the speed at which the water leaves the hole.
m/s

(b) determine the diameter of the hole.
mm

To solve this problem it is necessary to take into account the kinematic equations of motion and the change that exists in the volume flow.

By definition the change in speed is given by

Where,

x= distance

final velocity

initial velocity

a = acceleration

On the other hand we know that the flow of a fluid is given by

Where,

A = Area

v = Velocity

PART A )

Applying this equation to the previously given values we have to

Therefore the velocity of the water leaving the hole is 17.48m/s

PART B )

In the case of the hole we take the area of a circle, therefore replacing in the flow equation we have to,

The diameter is 2 times the radius, then is m or 1.91mm

Note: The rate flow was converted from minutes to seconds.

the simple machine has three main features. they are:

fulcrum is the center point or pivot point of the machine. effort is input force/ applied force. load is external force/ output.

the keisha 's machine labels are

x : load

y: fulcrum

z: lever
