There are two vertical cylindrical tanks, one 16 meters in diameter and the other is 24 meters in diameter, both stands on the same horizontal plane, and is connected by a 0.30 meter pipe at their bases. When the valve in the pipe is closed, the depth of water in the small tank is 30 meters and the other tank is 8 meters. If the pipe valve is opened, what is the equal depth in each tank?
