Table 1 shows the data for the network of pipes connecting four reservoirs to a common junction, J. Table 1 8fL Reservoir Water Level (m) Reservoir Pipe r = gn²D5 4.0 A 50 AJ 45 BJ 3.0 C 40 CJ 2.0 D 30 DJ 2.0 а) Sketch the pipe network together with the four reservoirs as described above and show the directions of flow based on the initial assumption of the head at the junction J of 41 m. State two hydraulics principles that need to be fulfilled in the analysis of this pipe network. b) Calculate the discharge in each pipe. Compute your answer to two decimal places only.
