4. A 0.75-m Ø pipe 1162 m long carrying 2.4 m³/s of water branches into 2 pipes 450-mm Ø and 600-mm Ø at junction A. The 450-mm pipe is 1254 m long and the 600 mm one is 1186 m. They come together at junction B and continue as a single pipe 750 mm in diameter and 866 m long. Assuming the values of ƒ are 0.017, 0.019, and 0.020 respectively for the 750-mm, 600-mm, and 450-mm pipe:   a. What is Q in the 450-mm pipe?   b. What is Q in the 600-mm pipe?   C. What is the pressure head at junction B if the pressure at A is 116 m?
