2 The figure at the right shows a tank that is open to the atmosphere at the top and has a pipe at the bottom, through which liquid exits. (a) Show that the expression for the speed of the liquid leaving the pipe is v₁ = √2gh (b) Calculate the speed v₁ of the liquid leaving the pipe if the difference in height is h = y₂ - Y₁ = 1.5 m. Hint: Assume that the liquid behaves as an ideal fluid (non-viscous). Therefore, we can apply Bernoulli's equation, and in preparation of doing so, we locate two points in the liquid. Point 1 is just outside the efflux pipe, and point 2 is at the top surface of the liquid. The pressure at each of these points is equal to the atmospheric pressure (P1 = P2 = atmospheric pressure), a fact that will be used to simplify Bernoulli's equation.

Question
3. The figure at the right shows a tank that is open to the atmosphere at the
top and has a pipe at the bottom, through which liquid exits.
(a) Show that the expression for the speed of the liquid leaving the pipe is
?1 = √2?ℎ
(b) Calculate the speed v1 of the liquid leaving the pipe if the difference in
height is h = y2 – y1 = 1.5 m.
Hint: Assume that the liquid behaves as an ideal fluid (non-viscous).
Therefore, we can apply Bernoulli’s equation, and in preparation of
doing so, we locate two points in the liquid. Point 1 is just outside the
efflux pipe, and point 2 is at the top surface of the liquid. The pressure at each of these points is equal to the
atmospheric pressure (P1 = P2 = atmospheric pressure), a fact that will be used to simplify Bernoulli’s
equation.
Solution:
(a) Show that the expression for the speed of the liquid leaving the pipe is
?1 = √2?ℎ
From the Bernoulli’s equation

Additional hint: h = y2 – y1 and if the tank is very large, the liquid level changes only slowly, and the speed
at point 2 can be set equal to zero (v2 = 0).
