It was found out that there are leakages at joints B and C thus, decreasing the discharges in pipes 4 and 5. Determine the decrease in the discharges (in efs) of pipes 4 and 5. Also, calculate the total head loss (in ft) in the pipe assembly. Use the Darcy-Weisbach equation with a friction factor of 0.02.
