Not illustrated. 1899 Excerpt: ...(1) x = 2 Vhy = 2.v/BM x MC = 2MN; (2) that is, the horizontal range of a liquid issuing horizontally through a very small orifice in the side of a vessel is equal to twice the ordinate at the orifice, in a semicircle whose diameter is the vertical distance from the surface of the liquid to the horizontal plane. Cor.--When the orifice is made at the centre of the side BC, the horizontal range is a maximum, and equal to the height of the liquid above CH; at equal distances above and below the centre, the range will be the same. 78. Time of Discharge from a Cylindrical Vessel when the Height is Constant When a cylindrical vessel is kept constantly full, it is required to determine the time in which a quantity of liquid equal in volume to the cylinder will flow through a small orifice in its base. Let h be the height of the surface, K the area of the base of the vessel, and k of the orifice, V the velocity of descent of the surface of the liquid, and v the velocity of efflux at the orifice, and t the time necessary to discharge a volume of liquid equal to that of the cylinder, which remains constantly full. Then the quantity of liquid which flows through the orifice in the unit of time is Tc Vfyh; and since the velocity of the surface is V, the quantity of liquid which passes through the orifice in the unit of time must equal VK. Hence we have VK--k/lgh; and as the vessel is kept constantly full, we have--A--_ g where Q denotes the whole quantity of liquid in the vessel. Cor.--If the liquid be kept at a height h' in a second vessel, containing a quantity Q', which flows through an orifice k', in the time t, we have from (1) (2) k'Vfyh' and from (1) and (2) we have Q: Q' kVJi: k' Vh!. Hence, the quantities discharged in the same time, from orifices of differen...
