Consider steady, incompressible flow through two identical pumps (pumps 1 and 2), either in series or in parallel. For each statement, choose whether the statement is true or false, and discuss your answer briefly:                      (a) The volume flow rate through the two pumps in series is equal to V. 1+V. 2.                                                                                                          (b) The overall net head across the two pumps in series is equal to H1 + H2.                                                                                                                  (c) The volume flow rate through the two pumps in parallel is equal to V.1 + V.2.                                                                                                               (d) The overall net head across the two pumps in parallel is equal to H1 + H2
