A pump draws water from a reservoir A and lifts it to reservoir B. The loss of head from A to point 1 is 3 times the velocity head in the 150 mm pipe and the loss of head from point 2 to B is 25 times the velocity head in the 100 mm pipe. When reservoir A is a starting point at elevation 0 and connected to point 1, where point 1 is also connected with a pump and point 2 is at elevation 20 m. which is connected with a pump that travels to reservoir B at elevation of 240 m. The discharge is 25 liters/sec, compute the pressure head at point 1.
a. 268 m
b. 134 m
c. 19.74 m

The center of mass of the ASV is located at G and the ASV is symmetric about its vertical axis. The ASV also experiences a drag force that is proportional to its speed and opposes its velocity. At the instant shown, the drag force is D = -kvi₁ where k is a drag coefficient. 1. To model the mass moment of inertia, approximate the ASV as consisting of three rigid bodies: a flat plate as a center body of mass 6m and two slender rods housing the propulsion assemblies, each of mass m, at the outboard sides of the vehicle.
