Water is drained from a vertical cylindrical tank by opening a valve at the base of the tank. It is known that the rate at which the water level drops is proportional to the square root of water depth $y$,where the constant of proportionality $k > 0$ depends on the acceleration due to gravity and the geometry of the hole. If $t$ is measured in minutes and $k = \frac{1}{15}$,then the time required to drain the tank if the water is $4 \text{ m}$ deep to start with is .......... $\text{min}$.
