Question
As shown in figure 3., water flows through pipe A 1.5 m in diameter at 2.5 m/s and passes through pipe
B 1 m in diameter. The water then flows through pipes C and D, if pipe C has a diameter of 70 cm and
must have a flow rate of 2.7612 m²/s, and the velocity at pipe D must be 8.4375 m/s, calculate (a.) the
flow rate at pipe A, (b.)velocity at pipe B, (c.) velocity at pipe C, (d.) the flow rate at pipe D and (e.)
the diameter of pipe D.
