  1. Consider a residential building with 5 floors with two homes at every flat each having 3 m height. You want to design such a piping system that provides the same mass flow rate to all floors with same outlet pressure. Come up with such a piping system that uses only one pump for the whole installment. Draw your system, make your assumptions, and show your results with a case study. (Hint: Minor losses may help! You may check pipe sizes and city water pressures trough internet sources)

There are two loops, each having a 5-cm-radius. Each of the loops is charged to +20nC. The loops are oriented with their faces to each other and are .20 m apart. a) Find the electric field strength and direction halfway along an imaginary line connecting the centers of the two loops. (Do not just write down the answer, but show how you obtain it). b) If the left loop is now taken away, what is the electric field strength and...
