A large tank partially filled with water the air space above being under pressure. A 0.05 m hose connected to the tank discharges on the roof of a building 20 m above the level of the tank. The friction loss is 0.06 m. The air pressure in terms of meters of water must be maintained in the tank to deliver 0.001 m³/s of the roof is (Assume depth of water in tank negligible as compared to height of building)
