Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

A reservoir has water 15 meters above a discharge point. Using Bernoulli's equation, calculate the velocity of the water as it exits.

💡 Hint: Remember to use the correct value for g.

Challenge 2 Hard

Consider a setup where a pipe makes a 10 cm diameter opening at the base of a large tank filled with water. If the water level is maintained at 20 m, calculate the flow rate when the height difference to the outlet is 2 meters.

💡 Hint: Calculate the area from the diameter first and then relate it to flow.
