Question

a)Determine the relationship between the air pressure in the tank and the maximum height to which the water fountain can rise above the discharge nozzle.

 

b)If a water fountain height of 10 mm is desired, what air pressure should be used?

A water fountain is to be constructed using the system shown in the figure below.
Tank
Air
Nozzle
Water
6 m
m
Valve
Water in the fountain is to come from a tank containing water and pressurized air. The depth of water in the tank is to be 6 m, and the nozzle of the water fountain is to be 1 m above the bottom of the tank. Assume water at 20 °C.
