Did I know: A water fountain could produce 1,33,303 ?

I always think how much this setup could pump out? This is a fountain at Technical University of Dortmund. Too much in to thinking and I was spoiled by my Statistics for Reaseachers and Engineers (SRE) course! It made me think, why not compute. Thanks to Sakthi Thangavel for the awesome and timely picture using a simple R Console Standing tall quenching the thirst of engineers! What I found is about potatoes that can be grown out that fountain running through the summer was interesting. This was more of an academic endeavour for me. I made a test by conducting a trail for measuring the water flow through it! Now why not use R project for the purpose of computing? I know its a lame for using such a powerful tool for a simple math but its not bad for getting around R! some of the assumptions made: Diameter of the pipe = 1 cm flow rate is constant for 6 months if someone is able to measure it > comment in the post! Formula used: formula used from www.1728.org will be implemented in R Code Formula in R pipeDiameter = sqrt (4 * flow / pi * velocity) velocity = (4*flow) / (pi * pipeDiameter^2) flow = 1/4*pi*(pipeDiameter)^2*velocity A bottle was filled in 21 seconds. Winny was the time keeper. It was a 1 litre bottle. So scientifically saying it took 21 seconds for 1000 millilitres. (Please comment if you have more accurate results to take a list of values from different trails to make the… Read more
