I started to solve by making equations for velocity (V) and flow rate (Q) in terms of headloss at point J (pipe intersection) but the equations I get doesn’t seem right. **Figure 8.27: Branching Pipes**This diagram illustrates a system of branching pipes used to analyze fluid flow dynamics within interconnected channels. It depicts three main sections of pipe labeled A, B, and C, with additional labels for the imaginary piezometer and flow areas.- **Pipe Sections:** - **A:** The starting point of the flow, where the fluid enters the system. - **B and C:** Additional branches where the fluid can travel after leaving section A.- **Flow Directions and Quantities:** - **Q1:** Flow rate from section A into the system. - **Q2:** Flow rate from the intersection point towards section B. - **Q3:** Flow rate from the intersection point towards section C.- **Heights and Pressure:** - **h1, h2, h3:** These heights indicate the pressure head at different points within the pipes. - **EL and HGL (Energy Line and Hydraulic Grade Line):** These lines represent energy heads and hydraulic gradients, respectively, throughout the system.- **Imaginary Piezometer:** An instrument shown in the diagram to measure the pressure at various points, aiding in the determination of hydraulic gradients and energy lines.- **Intersection Point P:** The location where the branching occurs, distributing the flow into sections B and C.This type of diagram is crucial for understanding how fluids navigate through complex piping systems and how various forces and pressures impact their movement. Understanding such systems is fundamental in fields like civil and environmental engineering, focusing on fluid dynamics in infrastructures such as water distribution and wastewater management systems. **Problem 8.89**Suppose, in Fig. 8.27, that pipes 1, 2, and 3 are 3000 ft of 24-in, 1000 ft of 18-in, and 4000 ft of 16-in, respectively, of new welded-steel pipe. The surface elevations of reservoirs \(A\), \(B\), and \(C\) are 120, 75, and 0 ft, respectively. The water temperature is 60°F. Using a basic scientific calculator only, find the flow in all pipes.*Note: Figure 8.27 is assumed to illustrate a series of pipes connecting different reservoirs. Each pipe has a different length and diameter, suggesting variations in flow rates depending on the hydraulic gradient and pipe diameter.*

If you decide to help, please help with all the parts of the question, I'm not sure I understand any of it... :/ The tank shown in the following figure is being filled by Pipes 1 and 2. The water level is to remain constant. A tank of water is open at the top. The tank is filled from above by pipe 1 and pipe 2. Pipe 1 has diameter d1 = 1 in., and fills the tank with water at a velocity of V1 = 2 ft/s. Pipe 2 has diameter d2 = 1.25 in., and fills the tank with water at a velocity of V2 = 1.4 ft/s. Water empties from the bottom of the tank through pipe 3. Pipe 3 has diameter d3 = 1.5 in., and empties water from the tank at an unknown velocity V3. (a) What is the volume flow rate (in ft3/s) of Pipe 1? (b) What is the volume flow rate (in ft3/s) of Pipe 2? (c) What is the volume flow rate (in ft3/s) of water leaving the tank at 3?
