PROBLEM: In Lake Geneva (Switzerland), there is a water jet (called the Jet d'Eau) that is discharged 130 m straight upward (measured from the surface of the lake). The exit of the discharge pipe is 20 cm in diameter. 130m Neglecting head loss, calculate the velocity of the water as it leaves the pipe. Applying Bernoulli's equation from surface (1)right outside the pipe opening to top of jet (2): lake

The water system in a suburban area consists of an old 200mm pipeline 760m long which conveys water from a pump to a reservoir whose water surface is 107m higher than the pump. Water is pumped at the rate of 0.07 m3/s. Determine the horsepower saved by replacing the old pipe with a new 250mm pipe. Assume the value of f as equal to 0.022 and 0.033, respectively, for the old and new pipes. Neglect losses of head except friction head show the diagram and complete solution. Need ASAP. Thank you
The figure shows two reservoirs connected by a pipe. The discharge rate in the pipe is known to be equal to SN/100 (m3/s) (where SN is the sum of your student number).
