Problem

A right circular conical tank stands on its apex. The cone has a height of 1.5 m1.5\,\text{m} and a top radius of 0.50 m0.50\,\text{m}. A tiny orifice of area 8.0×10−5 m28.0\times10^{-5}\,\text{m}^2 is drilled at the apex. Determine the instantaneous rate at which the water level is falling when the depth of water is 0.90 m0.90\,\text{m}. Take g=9.8 m s−2g = 9.8\,\text{m s}^{-2}.
