A hemi-spherical tank of radius 2 m is initially full of water and has an outlet of 12c m^2 cross-sectional area at the bottom. The outlet is opened at some instant. The flow through the outlet is according to the law v(t)=0.6sqrt(2gh(t)), where v(t) and h(t) are, respectively, the velocity of the flow through the outlet and the height of water level above the outlet and the height of water level above the outlet at time t , and g is the acceleration due to gravity. Find the time it takes to empty the tank.
