3. A pump draws water at 300 liters per second from reservoir A and lifts it
to reservoir B as shown. The head loss from A to 1 is 20 times the velocity
head in the 200 mm diameter and the head loss from 2 to B is 20 times the
velocity head in the 150-mm diameter pipe. Assume your own reservoir B
elevation then compute for the energy that must be supplied to the pump
in kW if said appurtenance has an efficiency of 80%. Compute also the
pressure at points 1 and 2.

4. The same venturi meter described in number 2 is used to measure the discharge for a length of pipeline that was suspected to
have had water stolen through an illegal connection. Before said suspected illegal connection, a mercury difference of 350 mm
was observed while a mercury difference of 200 mm was observed afterwards. Estimate the stolen volume of water per day.
