A water siphon with a constant inside diameter (d) of 2 inches is arranged as shown in the figure below. If the friction loss between A and B is 0.8:

(a) Provide a brief overview of the principles of fluid mechanics relevant to the operation of a siphon system.
(b) Explain the significance of the inside diameter (d) in the context of fluid flow through the siphon.
(c) Describe the arrangement shown in the figure and its role in the overall functioning of the siphon system.
(d) Discuss the concept of friction loss in fluid flow and how it impacts the efficiency of the siphon.
