A jet of water is coming out from an inverted conical tank, which is full of water, through an orifice located in the side at 3 m from the top along the side of the tank. The tank is 4√5 m high and has a diameter at the top of 2 m. The vertex of the tank is 2 m above the ground level. If the coefficient of discharge is 0.62 and coefficient of velocity is 0.98, find the horizontal distance measured from the center of the conical tank to the point on the ground where the jet landed.
Water from a reservoir is pumped over a hill through a pipe 3 ft. in diameter, and a pressure of 35 psi is maintained at the summit, where the pipe is 300 ft above the reservoir. The quantity pumped is 55 cfs, and by reason of friction in the pump pipe there is 10 ft of head loss between the reservoir and the summit. What amount of energy must be furnished the water by the pump in kilowatts?
