Transcribed Image Text:Problem 4
A pressurized tank of water has a 10-cm-diameter orifice at the
bottom, where water discharges to the atmosphere. The water
level is 2.5 m above the outlet. The tank air pressure above the
water level is 250 kPa (absolute) while the atmospheric pressure is
100 kPa. Neglecting frictional effects, determine the initial
discharge rate of water from the tank.
