The water level in a tank is 15 m above the ground. A hose is connected to the bottom of the tank, and the nozzle at the end of the hose is pointed straight up. The tank cover is airtight, and the air pressure above the water surface is 3 atm gage. The system is at sea level. Determine the maximum height to which the water stream could rise.

The water level in a tank is 20 m above the ground. A hose is connected to the bottom of the tank, and the nozzle at the end of the hose is pointed straight up. The tank is at sea level, and the water surface is open to the atmosphere. In the line leading from the tank to the nozzle is a pump, which increases the pressure of water. If the water jet rises to a height of 29 m from the ground, determine the minimum pressure rise supplied by the pump to the waterline.

Water from a reservoir is raised in a vertical tube of internal diameter D = 30 cm under the influence of the pulling force F of a piston. Determine the force needed to raise the water to a height of h = 1.5 m above the free surface. What would your response be for h = 3 m? Also, taking the atmospheric pressure to be 96 kPa, plot the absolute water pressure at the piston face as h varies from 0 to 3 m.

The drinking water needs of an office are met by large water bottles. One end of a 0.35-in-diameter, 6-ft-long plastic hose is inserted into the bottle placed on a high stand, while the other end with an on/off valve is maintained 3 ft below the bottom of the bottle. If the water level in the bottle is 1 ft when it is full, determine how long it would take to fill an 8-oz glass (= 0.00835 ft3) (a) when the bottle is first opened and (b) when the bottle is almost empty. Take the total minor loss coefficient, including the on/off valve, to be 2.8 when it is fully open. Assume the water temperature to be the same as the room temperature of 70°F.
