Problem- The circular base of a cylindrical tank is of 1 m diameter and has an orifice of 10 cm diameter. The discharge coefficient Cd for the orifice is 0.6. Initially the tank is empty and then it is filled from top using a pipe discharging 0.025 m³/s. How long will it take to fill the tank up to a height of 1 m? What will be the maximum height of 1 m? What will be the maximum height to which the tank can be filled?
