Question

A house at the bottom of the hill is fed by a full tank of water 5.0m deep and connected to the house by a pipe that is L=145m long at an angle of 60 degrees from the horizontal. Neglect turbulence, and frictional and viscous effects ***PLEASE HELP**

A house at the bottom of a hill is fed by a full tank of water 5.0 m deep and connected to the house by a pipe that is L = 145 m long at an angle of 60° from the horizontal. Neglect turbulence, and frictional and viscous effects. 60 (a) Determine the water gauge pressure at the house. 1198613.15 XN/m2 (b) How high would the water shoot if it came vertically out of a broken pipe in front of the house? 50.8Xm

Explanation / Answer

ans)

Given that depth d=5.0m
length of the pipe is L=145 m

angle made with the horizontal is ?=60 deg

pressure = Density x g x vertical Height

         =1000 kg/m3 x 9.8 x (L sin60 +5 mt)

      =1279622.098 pa

b)

the height of water = height from which it falls

  => H = L sin60 + 5

     = 130.57 mt
