In this experiment, we demonstrate the dynamics of water owing out of a tank. We will investigate the fluid dynamics, pressure and will see that how these simple phenomena can lead to rich dynamics that can be explored mathematically.
Using the rate change of mass for an emptying cylinder, we investigate the application of Bernoulli’s equation and the resulting Torricelli’s theorem. We also observe the effects of constriction on the parcel of water owing out of the tank.
