Question
"The tank in the form of a right-circular cone of radius 16 feet and height 40 feet standing on its end, vertex down, is leaking through a circular
hole of radius 4 inches. Assume the friction coefficient to be c = 0.6 and g = 32 ft/s. Then the equation governing the height h of the leaking water is
dh
dt
If the tank is initially full, it will take it
seconds to empty.
