Problem 57844. Solve an ODE: draining tank
Write a function to compute the time to drain a cylindrical tank of diameter D from an initial level
to a level h. The outflow occurs through a small circular orifice of diameter
at the bottom of the tank, and the outflow Q can be computed with
, where
is a discharge coefficient,
is the area of the orifice, and g is the acceleration of gravity, which should be taken as 9.81 m/s
.
