Problem 6 Water flows from a large reservoir to a smaller one at a flowrate of 6 L/s through a 5 cm diameter cast iron pipe as shown in the figure. a) Comment on the flow state. b) At what level should the free surface of water be from the ground in the first reservoir, so that such a flowrate can be maintained? c) If the pipe between the two reservoirs were straight at the ground level, calculate the change in head loss as compared to that calculated in (a).
