2) Consider the system shown in the figure below. The aim is to find the velocity of water from reservoir A to reservoir B. The pipes used in this system are stainless steel. The application of Bernouilli's equation from A to B and using the Blasius formula for the friction factor result to the equation given below. 161v26018+4.249v7/4+1.5v2=0 Based on that equation, it is asked to find the velocity by using the successive substitution method. It is also known that the velocity is measured as 10m/s at the same system with the same volumetric flow rate but different pipes (cast iron). a) Do your calculations by hand until your relative error percentage is less than 5%. b) Write a MATLAB code to find the velocity with an error tolerance of 106
