Two reservoirs whose surface levels differ by 30m are connected by a 600mm diameter and 3000m long. The pipe line crosses a ridge whose summit is 9m above the level of, and 300m distant from the higher reservoir. Find the minimum depth below the ridge at which the pipe must be laid if the absolute pressure head in the pipe is not to fall below 2.5m of water,. and calculate the discharge. Take atmospheric pressure head=10.3m of water and frictional coefficient f=0.0075.
