Three reservoirs A,B and C at water levels of 25 m, 12 m and 8 m are connected by a pipe network. 1200 m length pipe of diameter 0.5 m and f=0.013 draw water from A. 1000m length pipe of diameter 0.4m and f=0.015 draws water from B and joins the pipe end from A. The reservoir C is connected to this junction by 900 m length of pipe 0.6 m diameter with f= 0.011. a.) What would be the direction of flow? b.) If the flow in the 900m pipe is 0.60 m^3/s, what would be the flow in the 1000m pipe.

Question
Three reservoirs A,B and C at water levels of 25 m, 12 m and 8 m are connected by a pipe network. 1200 m length pipe of diameter 0.5 m and f=0.013 draw water from A. 1000m length pipe of diameter 0.4m and f=0.015 draws water from B and joins the pipe end from A. The reservoir C is connected to this junction by 900 m length of pipe 0.6 m diameter with f= 0.011.
a.) What would be the direction of flow?
b.) If the flow in the 900m pipe is 0.60 m^3/s, what would be the flow in the 1000m pipe.
