The water surface in reservoir X is 6 m higher than that in reservoir Y. A 150 mm diameter pipe 270 m long connected to reservoir X leads to a junction where it is connected to a 100 mm diameter pipe 150 m long, connected to reservoir Y. At the junction, a 200 mm diameter pipe 720 m long is connected to the other two pipes. If the 200 mm diameter pipe discharges 40 lit/sec of water into the air and using n = 0.011 for all pipes, what is the difference in elevation between its free end and the water surface in reservoir X?
