Question
For the tank system shown, there is a constant flow rate of \( Q \) into tank 1. Initially, tank 1 is at the height of \( h_0 \) while all other tanks are completely empty.

(a) Draw a block diagram representation of the following system.

**Diagram Explanation:**

The diagram depicts a series of three tanks connected in sequence:

1. **Tank 1**:
   - Positioned at the top left.
   - Receives input flow \( Q \).
   - Arrows indicate flow from Tank 1 to Tank 2 and Tank 3.

2. **Tank 2**:
   - Positioned to the right of Tank 1.
   - Receives flow from Tank 1.
   - Has an outlet flow continuing to the right.

3. **Tank 3**:
   - Placed below Tank 1.
   - Receives flow from Tank 1.

The arrows illustrate the direction of fluid flow between the tanks. The system allows for the distribution of fluid from Tank 1 to Tanks 2 and 3.
