Problem- The circular base of a cylindrical tank is of 1 m diameter and has an orifice of 10 cm diameter. The discharge coefficient C 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?
A cylindrical tank of water is 20 m in diameter and 3.5 m tall. There is a 1.0 cm diameter hole at the bottom from which water is leaking.

Tank A has an elevation of 100 m and Tank B has an elevation of 160 m. Since Tank A is lower than B, engineers have installed a pump near A to transfer fluid to B. The discharge in the pipe is at 0.65 cubic meters per second and pipe has a length of 1 km. with a diameter of 0.6 meters. If Hazen williams coefficient is equal to 120, compute the head loss in the pipe.
