3. Attached photo for the problem Sharp edge orifice... (my answer was -2.43) 4. A 50 mm diameter siphon discharges water from a reservoir (Point 1 elev = 20m) into open air (Point 3 elev. 10m). The head loss from the reservoir (point 1) to the summit (point 2 elev = 22m) is 3 times the velocity head in the siphon and head loss from the summit to the discharge end is 4 times the velocity head in the siphon. Determine the velocity in the siphon in m/s? Photo for this problem is attached below.
