A cylindrical vessel 3m high and 1.50 m diameter is filled with water to a depth of 2.50m. In its side is a 50mm circular orifice C=0.60 placed 30 cm above the bottom of the vessel. If the vessel be rotated about its own axis at 60 rpm and the water is allowed to escape through the orifice for a period of 3 minutes, compute the a. Difference in elevation of the water surface at the center and at the periphery of the tank at this instant.
