Answer:
The subjects of a conquered kingdom are not used to living in freedom or standing up for themselves, and are therefore slower to take up arms than are the citizens of a republic. There are three options for the conquering prince: destroy the republic, live there, or set up a puppet government. At the end of the day, Machiavelli seems to favor the first option.
Explanation:
The frictional resistance of the various pipes are given by the
K value in the table which may be used with the formula
hf = KQ2
to relate the magnitude of head loss hf in the pipeline
to the volumetric flow rate, Q. Water is drawn at the constant flow
rates from the network at nodes C and D. The static heads
(elevation + pressure head) at nodes B, C and D are 100m, 65m
and 61m respectively above the local datum. Calculate the
discharges at C and D and the water level in reservoir A. (The
data has been added to the diagram to aid the solution)
Use no more than 3 iterations and 3 significant figures.
