Question: Water is flowing through a 0 . 0 5 m diameter pipe from a large reservoir, as shown. The water level in the reservoir is

Water is flowing through a 0.05 m diameter pipe from a large reservoir, as shown. The water level in the reservoir is 35 m above the horizontal pipe segment at the exit from the tank. The pipe initially is bent down and later up, emerging above the ground level. The
loss coefficient in the three elbows is K=0.25, and we can assume a Darcy friction coefficient of f=0.02. Also for water =1000kgm3;=10-3Nsm2.
(a)(10%) If the maximum height of the jet is h=0.5m, calculate the exit velocity at ground level, the Reynolds number and the flow rate Q.
(b)(15%) Calculate the total length of the pipeline.
Note: this problem is different than the one in the homework
