The following is a network of five dams - A, B, C, D and E, and S is the source dam,

which provides just the necessary supply of water to each of the other dams.

The direction of flow in the canals connecting one dam to the other is given in the above
diagram. The requirement at any dam and the flow in any of the canals is a positive
multiple of 1000 cusecs.
(i) The requirement at A is 5000 cusecs and that at E is same as that at B.
(ii) The requirement at C is twice of that at D.

(iv) The flow in the canal connecting S and B is 1000 cusecs less than the flow in the
canal connecting S and A.
(v) The maximum possible flow in any canal is 9000 cusecs
(vi) For any canal the difference between the maximum possible flow and the actual flow
is called the slack in that canal.
