A vertical circular tank that is 1,5 m high, has sloping sides. The tank is 50 m and 30 m in the top and bottom diameters respectively. Discharge takes place through a triangular orifice situated at the bottom of the tank. The orifice has a base of 0,8 m long, 0,5 m below it's vertex. If the tank is originally full of water, what time is required to empty the tank? Take discharge coefficient as 0,63.
