Gravity. The tower is placed high so that gravity will create pressure and force water through pipes without any mechanical assistance.
To give the water potential energy. The water can flow down hill without using pumps.
It creats water pressure. Water flows from a higher place to lower place without a pump using only gravity. Once the water levels are the same you'd need a pump to transfer the remainder of H2O. The higher the start the faster the flow ( until you reach the force of gravity) and thus the better pressure coming to your home and faster the shampoo is rinsed out of your hair.

Why is a scuba diver's air tank placed in a tub of water when being refilled?
Because compressing a gas increases its temperature. The increase in temperature increases the pressure further. By cooling the tank in water the tank can be filled with more air, it's also safer than having a very hot super high pressure tank at the end of the fill.
Where should a heater in a water tank be placed to efficiently warm the water?
It will be most efficient if placed at or near the bottom so that convection will move the heated water upwards, warming the water above it as it rises and allowing the colder water to sink downwards towards the coils. If the heating element were placed higher up, the water below would have to warm almost exclusively by conduction which would take much longer.
Why doesn't the water in the deaerator tank turns to steam?
The water in the deaerator tank doesn't turn into steam because the water is kept at a high pressure, preventing it from boiling. The purpose of the deaerator is to remove dissolved gases from the feedwater, not to produce steam.

Why the tallah tank is placed so high?
The century old (1909) overhead steel tank is 1.34041 lakh square feet in area having a depth of 16 feet. It is the largest overhead tank in the world built by the British engineers. The massive water reservoir contains nine million gallons of filtered water and is placed 110 feet above the ground. In those days most of the buildings in the city were two or three storeys high. Besides, it was the first point of city's water supply distribution system. The unique feature of the tank is that no separate pipe lines for filling up and delivery. The pipe that fills the tank also used for delivery. Hence, the overhead tank serves role of balancing tank. When underground tank at Tallah is spilled over with the incoming supply from Pulta water works( 24 km upstream of Calcutta) the surplus water is stored in the overhead tank and again when the water level in the underground tank dwindles it compensates the for the loss due to distribution. It seems to be that in order to add pressure to the gravitational flow of the water the overhead tank was placed at a height.
A rectangular tank measures 150cm x 100cm x 50cm it is filled with water to a height of 30cm an object is placed in the tank the water is now at the height of 36.2cm what is the volume of the object?
If the object hsa sunk the volume is equal to the volume of water displaced If the tank is 50 cm high, the volume is 150x100x (36.2-30) = 93000 cubic centimeters
Why is the water level too high in the toilet tank?
The water level in the toilet tank is too high because the float valve is not shutting off the water flow properly.
Why is the water level in the toilet tank too high?
The water level in the toilet tank may be too high due to a faulty fill valve or a problem with the float mechanism. This can cause excess water to flow into the tank, leading to an elevated water level.
How hot will a 40 gallon hot water tank get?
As high as the highest setting available on the tank.
What location in a well water system should the check valve be placed?
In the incoming water line from well, before pressure tank.
