Question: Question 2 . ( Use Excel ) Determine flow rates in the branching pipe system depicted in the figure below, given the following water surface

Question 2.(Use Excel) Determine flow rates in the branching pipe system depicted in the figure below, given the following water surface (WS) elevation and pipe data (lengths and diameters):
WS1=5,200ftL1=4,000ftD1=3ft
WS2=5,170ftL2=2,000ftD2=5ft
WS3=5,100ftL3=3,000ftD3=4ft
All of the pipes are lined ductile iron (DIP,e=0.0004ft) and the temperature of the water is 68F. Also determine the elevation of the junction (J) if the pressure head (PJ) at the junction measured by a piezometer (height from J to HJ) is 30ft.
