Consider this problem from a homework assignment with f=0.02 and all minor losses neglected. You found that velocity in the pipe between reservoir A and the junction was 4.0m/s, velocity in pipe going to reservoir B is 2.3m/s and velocity in pipe going to reservoir C (with open valve) is 1.7m/s. Your boss stated that if all velocities are exactly doubled (velocity from A is 8.0 m/s,...) all equations will still be satisfied. Is your boss correct? Explain and show the analysis.

1. The performance data of a water pump follow the curve fit Havailable =Ho +aV, where the pump's shutoff head Ho="K", coefficient a="Y" m/(Lpm)?, the units of pump head H are meters, and the units of Vare liters per minute (Lpm). The pump is used to pump water from one large reservoir to another large reservoir at a higher elevation. The free surfaces of both reservoirs are exposed to atmospheric pressure. The system curve simplifies to Hrequired =(Z2-Z1)+bV², where elevation difference z2-z1="X" m, and coefficient b = "L" m(Lpm)?.
