Analyse the pressure head at point (2) and (3) for the water reticulation system
shown in the Figure 3b below if p1 = 150 kPa, u1 = 3 m/s and z3 = 15 m. (Given that
p for water = 1000 kg/m³ and g = 9.81 m/s2). Pipe internal diameter at (1) and (3) is
50 mm and at (2) is 25 mm. Elevation z2 is two third of z3 but is twice of z1.
