Steady state incompressible flow through a pipe network is shown in the figure. Inlets marked as (1), (2) and (3) and exit marked as (4), are shown with their respective diameters. The exit flow rate at (4) is 0.1 m3/s. A 20% increase in flow rate through (3) results in a 10% increase in flow rate through (4). The original velocity through inlet (3) is _____ m/s. H h 1 H 5 cm 10 cm (3) (2) (1) (4) XE (GATE 2014)
Answer: 17.55 to 17.75
