Homework Statement
Use Torricelli's principle to find the time it takes to empty a conical tank of circular cross section standing on its apex whose angle is 45° and has an outlet of cross sectional area 1.0cm². The tank is initially full of water and at time t = 0 the outlet is opened and the water flows out. The initial depth of the water in the tank is 2m.
Homework Equations
Torricelli's principle: √2gh
Volume of a Cone: V= (1/3) π r² h
The Attempt at a Solution
where A_b is the area of the tank and A_o is the area of the hole
Is this the right conclusion and then substitute my given values into that equation to find the time when?
