Homework Statement
Students must create an irrigation system that takes water from a reservoir 80 cm deep to a wave pool across the room. A perfectly leveled horizontal tube with constant circumference takes water from the bottom of the reservoir to the wave pool.
Why would adding more water results in a grater velocity of the water as it exits the tube? The solutions book states that the velocity of the water as it leaves the reservoir is only related to the depth of water in the reservoir which I understand. But adding more water doesn't increase the depth of the water right?
So why would adding more water increase the velocity of the water as it exits the tube to enter the wave pool?
