Question
Taps. The water distribution
system of a simple
household with a water tank is illustrated in a
schematic diagram shown in the figure. The
1.95[m]-tall tank is exposed to the atmosphere
and is completely filled. Its base is 18.5[m]
above the ground and has a diameter much
larger than that of the faucet. Water drains down
the outlet pipe of diameter 6.00 [cm] to ground
level before rising up to a narrower 3.00[cm]
diameter faucet pipe, 1.00[m] above the ground.
What is the absolute pressure at point Q (at
ground level) as water flows out of the faucet?
Water tank
18.5 m
Q
Select one:
O 2.90[kPa]
1.20[kPa]
1.89[kPa]
O 2.80[kPa]
1.95 m
faucet
1.00 m
