Given information

Given in the question that,

The area of sink is .

Height is .

The siphon tube rises  above the bottom of the sink and then descends  to a pail.

The siphon tube has a diameter of .

We need to assume that that the water level in the sink has almost zero velocity. And need to estimate the water velocity when it enters the pail by using Bernoulli's equation. 

Step-by-step explanation

Step 1.

 

Bernoulli's equation can be expressed as, 

.

Here,  represents the pressure head, represents the velocity head and  is the height.
