. Water is siphoned out of a tank out of a tank by means of a bent pipe ABC 24m long and 25mm diam. The end A is below the water surface and 150mm above the base of the tank. The length AB is vertical and 9m long and bc is 15m long with the discharge end C 1.5m below the base of the tank. Assuming a barometric pressure of 10.3m of water and siphon action at B ceases when the absolute pressure is 1.8m of water, determine the limiting velocity of water in the pipe and depth of water in the tank when the siphon action ceases. Assume that the loss of head in friction per meter is 0.5v/2g where v= velocity in the pipe.
