A sharp-edged circular nozzle with a cross-sectional area of 10 cm2. Water flows from it under the action of a charge of 3m. The extrusion flowing from the nozzle decreases by 0.54 m before hitting the ground at a horizontal distance of 2.4 m from the nozzle. If the discharge is L/s 4.5, calculate the velocity and contraction coefficients of the nozzle. Do they match with theoretical values?

A cylindrical tank, 1.5 m inside diameter has an orifice at its side 0.55m.above the bottom. If this tank is placed on a platform 3.0 m high and thetank filled with water, the jet coming from the orifice was noted to reacha point on the ground 6 m from the side of the tank. After a time, interval,the jet was noted to slow down and reach only 4 m from the same referencepoint. Compute the volume of the volute of water discharge from theorifice during the time interval between the two observations. Neglect airresistance and assume Cv for orifices to be 0.97.
