"Two reservoirs 1200 m apart are connected by a 50-cm smooth concrete pipe. If the two reservoirs have an elevation difference of 5 m, determine the discharge (20 degree C) in the pipe by the Darcy Weisbach equation, (b) the Hazen- Williams equation, (c) the Manning equation. Assume minor losses are negligible and verify your results with computer software."
