Find flow rates Q0, Q1, Q2, and Q4 if pipe 3 becomes

blocked.

A cast-iron pipe system consists of a 500-ft section of

water pipe, after which the flow branches into two 300-ft

sections. The two branches then meet in a final 250-ft section.

Minor losses may be neglected. All sections are 1.5-in. diameter, except one of the two branches, which is 1-in. diameter.

If the applied pressure across the system is 100 psi, find

the overall flow rate and the flow rates in each of the two

branches.
