A sharp-edged orifice 100 mm in diameter, in the side of tank having a horizontal cross-section 2 m square, discharge waterunder a constant head. The rate of inflow over which the head was kept constant is suddenly changed from 20 l/s to 30 l/s.How long will it take, after this change occurs, for the head to become 2 meters? The coefficient of discharge may be consideredconstant and equal to 0.60
