3. Petrol is drained from a tank X to tank Y via pipeline A-B (see figure Q3). A pump is then used
to pump the petrol from tank Y to tank Z via pipeline C-D. Pipe lengths, diameters and relative
heights of the pump and tank levels are as shown in figure Q3.
The density of the petrol is 760 kg/m³ and the Fanning friction factor (f) for all the
pipes is 0.0075.
