01(a) There are two reservoirs, A and B, with the water surface elevation in A 10 m higher than that in B. These are connected through two pipes in series with pipe 1 starting from A and pipe 2 ending in B. Lengths of both the pipes are 100 m, diameter of pipe 1 is 30 cm and diameter of pipe 2 is 25 cm. At the junction of these pipes, water is being withdrawn at the Lv² rate of 0.02 m³/s. Friction loss in the pipes is given by h₁ = f and the Darcy friction, f, D 2g for both pipes is 0.02. Neglecting the head losses at the entrance and at the junction, estimate the total water withdrawal from reservoir A.

01(a) There are two reservoirs, A and B, with the water surface elevation in A 10 m higher than
that in B. These are connected through two pipes in series with pipe 1 starting from A and
pipe 2 ending in B. Lengths of both the pipes are 100 m, diameter of pipe 1 is 30 cm and
diameter of pipe 2 is 25 cm. At the junction of these pipes, water is being withdrawn at the

for both pipes is 0.02. Neglecting the head losses at the
estimate the total water withdrawal from reservoir A.
