Driven by pressurized air in a tank, water flows through pipes (L₁ = 40 m, L2 = 80 m, L3 = 20 m) of 50 mm diameters, as shown in the figure below. Assuming the inside wall of the pipe is smooth, how much gage pressure p, is needed to provide a flow rate of 50 m³/h for water height h = 10 m? Neglect all minor head losses. The dynamic viscosity of water in this pipe is taken as 1.02x10-3 N s/m². L3 P₁ V h L₂
