(a) Two vertical cylindrical tanks of 3.00- meter and 2.00-meter diameter containing water are joined at their base by a pipe of diameter 0.05 meter. This pipe is short enough to be treated as an orifice with a co-efficient of discharge of 0.58. The 3.00-meter tank initially has a level = 6 = 2.00 meter higher than the other. Calculate how long it will take for the level difference to half.

Question
(a)
Two vertical cylindrical tanks of 3.00- meter and 2.00-meter diameter containing water
are joined at their base by a pipe of diameter 0.05 meter. This pipe is short enough to be treated
as an orifice with a co-efficient of discharge of 0.58. The 3.00-meter tank initially has a level
= 6 =
2.00 meter higher than the other. Calculate how long it will take for the level difference to
half.
