Fluid motion: V(h) = + 20
Suppose the velocity of a fluid flowing from an open tank (no top) through an opening in its side is given by the function shown, where V(h) is the velocity of the fluid (in feet per second) at water height h (in feet). Note this function belongs to the square root family of functions. An open tank is 25 ft deep and filled to the brim with fluid. (a) Use a table of values to graph the function on the interval [0, 25]. (b) From your graph, estimate the velocity of the fluid when the water level is 7 ft, then find the actual velocity. Are the answers close? (c) If the fluid velocity is 5 ft/sec, how high is the water in the tank?
