    1-073-WaterExitBottle-ModelingScenario
    We offer an experiment in which data is collected to ascertain a parameter in the differential equation formulation of Torricelli's Law for water flow out of a cylindrical container.

    1-057-FiguringFluidFlow-ModelingScenario
    We propose three differential equations models for the height of a column of falling water as the water exits a small bore hole at the bottom of the cylinder and ask students to determine which model is the best of the three.

    1-090-EmptySphericalTank-ModelingScenario
    We model the emptying of water from a spherical tank. First, we pump out water at a constant rate. Second, we allow the water to exit through a small hole in the bottom of the tank. We seek to determine how fast the water level is falling in both...

    1-051-OneTankSaltModel-ModelingScenario
    A large tank initially contains 60 pounds of salt dissolved into 90 gallons of water. Salt water flows in at a rate of 4 gallons per minute, with a salt density of 2 pounds per gallon. The incoming water is mixed in with the contents of the tank...

    1-058-WaterClocks-ModelingScenario
    We apply Torricelli's Law to the task of building a water clock in which the height of the water in a container falls at a constant rate when the container has a hole in the bottom to let the water flow out.

    1-029-ConeToCubeFlow-ModelingScenario
    An inverted right circular cone with a hole at the bottom is suspended above an open-topped cube which also has a hole in the center of the bottom. The cone is filled with water and we model water flow from cone to cube and out the bottom of the...

    1-026-Evaporation-ModelingScenario
    We provide data on evaporation of 91% isopropyl alcohol in six different Petri dishes and one conical funnel and on evaporation of water in one Petri dish. We ask students to develop a mathematical model for the rate of change in the respective...

    1-015-Torricelli-ModelingScenario
    We help students develop a model (Torricelli's Law) for the height of a falling column of water with a small hole in the container at the bottom of the column of water through which water exits the column.

    1-064-TorricelliBox-ModelingScenario
    The time it takes a column of water to empty and the time it takes the same volume of column of water with a box (various sizes) submerged in the column of water are compared through modeling with Torricelli's Law.
