5. You return home for a long weekend and your mother informs
you that they have a water leak from the upstairs bath tub. With
your new found knowledge of fluid flow, you want to determine
how many gallons your parents are wasting each month. So you
place a container (capacity in Cell B51)under the drip and start the
stop watch. You randomly check it several times and mark the
time when the container is full. According to the table below,
what is the average loss in gallons per month (cell B54)?
Time
Hours Min Sec
14 8 30
14 12 45
13 15 45
13 20 45
13 28 45

* Use 30 days for a month… I

Avg time (hr) = 13.688333333 know some are more, one less -
V (Qt) = 2 just use 30 to be consistent
Q (Qt/hr) = 0.1461098259
V (Gal) = 0.5 0.87665896
Q= 26.30 Gal/month

6. A local fire truck, has hose size listed below, that is limited to
an average velocity shown. They have been requested to fill a
local pool that has a volume shown below. How many minutes
will it take to fill the pool with the fire truck's hose (cell B64)?
Assume they are drawing from a FH that has unlimited volume and
a max flow rate of rated at 1,600 GPM
D1 (in) = 6
V (Gal) = 30,000
A1 (ft2) = 0.1963495408
