At a vacation camp in the woods, the owner collects rainwater for washing. She plans to construct a cold-water shower by mounting the collection tank (i.e., 150-gallon, 36-inch diameter) on a platform and using gravity to provide the flow through piping attached to a hole in the side near the bottom of the tank (Figure 1.53). She easily can obtain PEX tubing (i.e., cross-linked polyethylene) in nominal 1/2-inch and 1-inch sizes. What is the flow rate at the pipe exit at the beginning of the shower if she connected 10 feet of the 1/2-inch PEX (ID = 0.632 inches) to a full tank of water? What is the flow rate if the tank were only half full? Do not neglect friction.
