Question:

Two galvanized iron pipes of diameter \(D\) are connected to a large water reservoir, as shown. Pipe \(A\) has length \(L\) and pipe \(B\) has length \(2 L\). Both pipes discharge to atmosphere. Which pipe will pass the larger flow rate? Justify without calculating the flow rate in each pipe. Compute the flow rates if \(H=10 \mathrm{~m}, D=50 \mathrm{~mm}\), and \(L=10 \mathrm{~m}\).
