The three-reservoir system is being utilized to supply water for the metropolitan city. The elevations of Reservoir A, Reservoir B, and Reservoir C are 200 mamsl, 150 mamsl, and 40 mamsl, respectively. Pipe A which connects Reservoir A to a junction has a length of 5000 m, diameter of 1200 mm, and C-value of 100. Pipe B which connects Reservoir B to a junction has a length of 1000 m, diameter of 600 mm, and C-value of 90. Pipe C which connects Reservoir C to a junction has a length of 8000 m, diameter of 2000 mm, and C-value of 80. Determine the (a) head loss in meter along Pipe A, Pipe B, and Pipe C, and (b) flow rate in m3/s along Pipe A, Pipe B, and Pipe C.
