A certain part of cast iron piping 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 1500 m long, while the other branch (pipe B) is 2700 m long. If the flow rate through pipe A is 0.4 m3/s, determine the flow rate through pipe B. Disregard minor losses and assume the water temperature to be 15°C. Is the flow turbulent or laminar? Is the friction factor dependent or independent of the Reynold's number? The density and dynamic viscosity of water at 15°C are rho = 999.1 kg/m3 and μ = 1.138 × 10–3 kg/m·s. The roughness of the cast iron pipe is ε = 0.00026 m.

Amass of 1.5 kg of air at 120 kpa and 24°c is contained in a gas-tight, frictionless piston-cylinder device. the air is now compressed to a final pressure of 720 kpa. during the process, heat is transferred from the air such that the temperature inside the cylinder remains constant. calculate the boundary work input during this process.
