A tank ABCDEF shown in given figure is filled with water. A small opening at E keeps the pressure at E atmospheric. (a) Calculate the acceleration a, required to cause onset of cavitation at A. (b) What will be the pressures at that acceleration at points B, C, D and F? [Assume local atmospheric pressure head 10.0 m of water and vapour pressure head = 0.5 m (abs) of water] 1.2 m Opening 5.0 m- 1.5 m 2.3 m A 0.8 m в 1 6.2 m
