35. (a) A reservoir A discharges water to a lower reservoir B through a 3600 m long pipe of diameter 600 mm. The flow is due to gravity and the difference in surface water levels in A and B is 13 m. Reservoir A is now required to supply water also to a third reservoir C, the water surface of which is 15 m below that of A. The discharge to C is to be made from a 1200 m...

Water flows from one large reservoir to another via a pipeline which is 0.9 m in diameter, 15km long, and for which f-0.04. The difference in height between the water surface levels in the two reservoirs is 50m. (a) Ignoring the minor losses in the pipeline, calculate the flow rate between the two reservoirs.
