a large cylindrical steel tank 4 m high with its bottom on a level ground contains two layers of liquid. The bottom layer is water 2 meters deep. The top layer is occuppied by a liquid with unknown specific gravity to a depth of 1 m. A 50 mm dia. orifice with a coefficient of velocit of 0.98 is situated one meter from the bottom of the tank. The jet from the orifice hits the ground 2.75 m horizontally away from the vena cotracta. Determine the specific gravity of the liquid at the top layer
