9 Water flows through a pipe AB 1.2m diameter at 3m/s and then passes through a pipe BC of diameter 1.5m. At C, the pipe branches. Branch CD is 0.8m in diameter and carries one third of the flow in AB. The flow velocity in branch CE is 2.5m/s. find the volume rate of flow in AB, the velocity in BC, the velocity in CD and diameter of CE

a. Discharge in AB:QAB=νABSAB=3m/s⋅(4π(1.2m)2)
=3.3929m3/s
b. Velocity in BC:νBC=SBCQBC=4π(1.5m)2QAB
=4π(1.5m)23.3929m3/s=1.92m/s
c. Velocity in CD:νCD=SCDQCD=4π(0.8m)231QAB
=3⋅4π(0.8m)23.3929m3/s=2.25m/s
d. Diameter of CE:νCE=SCEQCE=4π(DCE)232QAB
