Acertain part of cast iron piping (ε =0.00026 m) of a water distribution system involves a parallel section. both parallel pipes have a diameter of 30 cm, and the flow is fully turbulent. one of the branches (pipe a) is 1000 m long with a halfway-closed gate valve (k =2.1) while the other branch (pipe b) is 3000 m long with a fully open globe valve (k = 10). if the flow rate through pipe a is 0.4 m3/s, determine the flow rate through pipe b. do not disregard minor losses and assume the water temperature to be 15 °c. also, show that the flow is fully turbulent, and thus friction factor is independent of reynolds number. assume that the density and viscosity of water to be 1000 kg/m3 and 1.138 x10-3 pa. s.

Afoot bridge is made as a simple deck, 4 m long, with a cross section 2 m (wide) and 20 cm thick, and made of wood. the deck is supported at the two ends. the maximum load allowable on the bridge is 10 tons, provided it is uniformly distributed on the deck. to sense this load, a strain gauge is placed at the center of the bridge and its resistance is monitored. if the sensor has a nominal resistance of 350 s2 and a gauge factor of 3.6, what is the reading of the strain gauge at maximum load? the modulus of elasticity for the wood used in the construction is 10 gpa.
