A large diameter closed top tank is filled with a depth of 3 meters of a fluid (density 1200 kg/m3). A small pipe leading from the bottom of the tank must carry the fluid to a height of 5 meters (2 meters above the top level of the tank fluid level). a) What pressure must be maintained in the space above the fill line in the tank to provide an exit speed of 5 m/sec for the fluid out of the pipe? (the pressure at the exhaust end of the pipe is 1 atmosphere or about 1 x 105 pascal) 15 pt If the pipe diameter is 2 cm, what will be the initial volume rate of flow (m3 /sec) 5pt
