Your going to have to be slightly more specific than that. What specifically are you having problems with?tankFan86 said:Does anyone have any ideas about this?
tankFan86 said:Which part of the attached pdf (above) is not specific enough? Assume the tank is draining in a gravitational potential.
I hope this is the correct forum. The homework help forum did not seem appropriate, as this is not part of a problem set or any particular class/assignment. I cannot find anything in the literature that addresses these issues.ZapperZ said:Hoot isn't asking about the specifics of the problem, but rather the specifics of where YOU are having trouble with it. In other words, what have you attempted and where did you get stuck.
Since you didn't answer on whether this is a HW/Coursework problem or not, we are forced to assume that it is. Please post questions like this only in the HW/coursework forum from now on.

Fluid mechanics is the branch of physics that deals with the study of fluids (liquids and gases) and the forces that act on them.
Some common problems in fluid mechanics include fluid flow, turbulence, pressure, buoyancy, and viscosity.
Bernoulli's principle states that in a steady flow of an ideal fluid, the pressure decreases as the velocity of the fluid increases. This principle is important in understanding the behavior of fluids in motion, such as the lift of an airplane wing or the flow of water through a pipe.
Fluid mechanics has many applications in engineering, including designing and analyzing pumps, turbines, pipes, and other fluid systems. It is also important in understanding weather patterns, ocean currents, and the behavior of blood flow in the human body.
Fluid mechanics is used in many everyday activities, such as driving a car (fluid flow in the engine), taking a shower (water flow through pipes), and even drinking from a straw (suction and pressure). It also plays a role in activities like swimming, surfing, and sailing.
