A large storage tank that holds water is placed on the edge of a nearby community where it is maintained
in case of an emergency. There is a pipe located at the bottom of the tank for the water to flow out of and
a valve to keep the water in the tank. The height of the tank is meters and the temperature of the tank is
maintained at is deg C A pressure gauge at the bottom of the tank right next to the valve reads psig.
a Derive the total energy balance equation with an equation that can be used to determine the pressure
at the top of the tank.
b What is a more common name for the equation that you get from your derivation?
c Now solve for the pressure at the top of the tank and report the value in atm.
