A tank has water flowing in at a rate of 2 liters per second. If it has a cross-sectional area of 0.5 square meters and is draining out at a rate of 1 liter per second, find the change in water level over time.
💡 Hint: What is the relationship between volume, area, and height?
Given a T-joint in a pipe system with diameters of 4 m (inlet), 4 m (outlet Q), and 2 m (outlet R), with velocities of 6 m/s and 5 m/s, find the velocity at outlet R.
💡 Hint: Remember how mass flow rates tie the velocities together.
