A pipeline of 50 mm diameter and 4.5 km length connects two reservoirs whose constant difference of water level is 12 m. A branch pipe 1.25 km long and taken from a point distance of 1.5 km from reservoir A, leads to reservoir C whose water level is 15 m below that of reservoir A. Find the diameter of the branch pipe so that the flow into both the reservoirs is the same. Assume the coefficient of friction for each pipe, ƒ = 0.0075, and neglect minor losses.
