A long, straight, horizontal 1000 ft length of 2 ft diameter pipe carries a 60°F water flow of 30 cfs. At this temperature, the water density is 1.94 slug/ft³, and the viscosity is 2.35x105 slug/ft-s. The equivalent sand grain roughness of the pipe is 0.0033 ft. What is the pressure drop over this length of pipe?

Which of the following statements about HGL and EGL is correct? O For any pipe will a constant wall thickness, the slopes of EGL and HGL will be constant. O If the EGL falls below the pipe, then pressure head is negative, indicating a potential location of cavitation. O When a flow passage decreases in diameter, the distance between the EGL and HGL will increase. O When a pipe discharges into the atmosphere, both HGL and EGL will coincide with the system because pressure head is zero at these points.

A test is set up as shown. A cylindrical mold 4" in diameter is filled with silt to height of H1=0.2ft whose coefficient of permeability is 3.6x10^-4 ft/min. A second coaxial mold is placed on the top of the first mold whose inside legs of the square tube is 1.5" and whose height is H2=0.3ft. Its thickness is negligible. The inside of the second mold is filled with sand whose coefficient of permeability is 2.7x10^-3 ft/min but the outside of the second mold is filled with the same silt. The test set up is constant head. Water is placed on molds and maintained at the level 1.25ft above the level of outlet. It may be consider that the system consist of fictitious soil of thickness H1+H2 and the coefficient of permeability of both soils is Kf, determine the volume of water collected after 55 minutes.
