    1(a) Explain prandtl mixing length theory and obtain an expression for velocity distrubution. what is
    Colebrook White equation ? (8)

    1(b) A horizontal pipeline 40m long is connected to a water tank at one end and discharges freely into
    the atmosphere at the other end. For the first 25m of its length from the tank, the pipe is 15cm
    diameter and its diameter is suddenly enlarged to 35cm. The height of water level in the tank is 7m
    above the center of the pipe. Considering all loss of head, which occurs; take f=0.01

    Calculate the rate of flow. (7)

    2(a) A siphon of diameter 200mm connects two reservoirs having difference in elevation of 20m. The
    length of siphon is 500m and summit is 3m above water level in upper reservoir. The length of siphon
    from upper reservoir to summit is 100m. Determine the discharge through the siphon and also the
    pressure at summit. Neglect minor losses. Friction Factor, f=0.02. (8)
