An open cylindrical tank 5 m in diameter and 6 m high is full of water. Two orifices are placed on the vertical side of the tank. One orifice is at elevation 22.50 m and the other at 20.50m elevation. The area of each orifice is 0.002 m^2. Use Cc = 0.62 and Cv = 0.98. The bottom of the tank is at elevation 20 m. a) How far from the vertical side of the tank will the jets of water intersect at an instant when the tank is full? b) What is the elevation where the jets intersect? c) What is the time that it will take to lower the water level by 1.20 m?
