The tank in the figure between a where the depth is 20 ft and b where the depth is 4 ft is a frustum of a paraboloid with vertical side axis. The elements between a and b follow the curve x² = 9h, the origin being in the plane of the orifice. The orifice is sharp- edged, 4 in. in diameter, with Cd = 0.607. Compute the time required for the liquid level he in the tank to drop from a to b. 6
