Find the average velocity of the water leaving the tank.

Answer to Problem 36P
The average velocity of the leaving water in the tank is
Explanation of Solution
Given data:
Refer to the Figure Problem 8.36 in the textbook, which shows the tank is filled by water using pipes 1 and 2.
The water level increases in the rate of 0.1 in/s.
The diameter of the tank is
Formula used:
Write the expression for the volume flow rate.
Here,
Calculation:
Consider that the constant water density.
From the Figure Problem 8.35 in the textbook, write the volume flow rate expression for inlet and outlet volumetric flow rate expressions.
