Three reservoirs A, B, and C is connected respectively with pipes 1, 2, and 3 joining at a common joint P whose elevation is 366m. Reservoir A is at elevation 933 m and reservoir B is at elevation 844 m. A pressure gage at junction P reads 4950 kPa. What is (a) the flow in pipe 1 in m³/s, (b) the flow in pipe 3 in lit/s, and (c) the elevation of reservoir C in meters
