A 4 in. diameter open can has a $1 / 4$ in. diameter hole in the bottom. The can is immersed bottom down in a pool of water to a point where the bottom is $6 \mathrm{in}$. below the water surface and is held there while the water flows through the hole into the can. How long will it take for the water in the can to rise to the same level as that outside the can? Neglect friction, and assume a "pseudo steady state," that is, time changes are so slow that at any instant the steady-state Bernoulli equation applies.
