Textbook Question
Chapter 4, Problem 96P
In ancient Egypt, circular vessels filled with water sometimes were used as crude clocks. The vessels were shaped in such a way that, as water drained from the bottom, the surface level dropped at constant rate, s. Assume that water drains from a small hole of area A. Find an expression for the radius of the vessel, r, as a function of the water level, h. Obtain an expression for the volume of water needed so that the clock will operate for n hours.

Use g =9.81m/s2. A 2m diameter open cylindrical tank, half-filled
with water, is rotated about its vertical axis. If the height of the
tank is twice the diameter, determine the following:
the maximum speed (rpm) without spilling any
water;
the height (m) of water at the sides of the tank if
the depth of water at the center is zero;
the vertical distance (m) of the vertex of the
parabola from the top of the tank if the angular speed is 90rpm;
and
the volume of water spilled (in liters) if the
angular speed is 90 rpm.
Note: Do not include units in your answers. Do not round off
intermediate values and answer in four decimal places.
