1. 20 marks: A large water tank is equipped with 3 pipes to flow water out of the tank. The pipes are labelled A, B and C for convenience and they are interconnected as shown in the figure below. The characteristics of the pipe are shown in the table below. Pipe D (cm) L(m) 15 45 m A B Pos-P Friction factor (f) 0.020 0.032 0.024 500 400 100 10 20 A с B. с 20 m Questions: 1: Find the flowrate in each pipe. 2: Find the pressure at position P, which is just at the entrance of pipe C. Ignore any minor losses. Hints: For a pipe in parallel, the frictional head-loss are equal, i.e. hva = hib
