Three pipes 1, 2 and 3 from three reservoirs A,B and C, respectively, meet at a junction whose elevation is 366 m. Water levels at reservoirs A and B are elevations 825 m and 716 m respectively. Useful properties of the pipe are given: for pipe 1, L= 300 m diameter+ 200 mm f= 0.018; for pipe 2, L= 1200 diameter = 300 mm, f= 0.020 and for pipe 3, L = 1500 m diameter= 0.025. If the pressure at the junction of the pipe is 2730 kPa, find the elevation of the water at reservoir C. Include a free body diagram. (Choices: a.462.07 m. b.544. 96 m. c.480.33 m. d.503.29 m. )

Question

Three pipes 1, 2 and 3 from three reservoirs A,B and C, respectively, meet at a junction whose elevation is 366 m. Water levels at reservoirs A and B are elevations 825 m and 716 m respectively. Useful properties of the pipe are given: for pipe 1, L= 300 m diameter+ 200 mm f= 0.018; for pipe 2, L= 1200 diameter = 300 mm, f= 0.020 and for pipe 3, L = 1500 m diameter= 0.025. If the pressure at the junction of the pipe is 2730 kPa, find the elevation of the water at reservoir C. Include a free body diagram.
(Choices:  a.462.07 m.  b.544. 96 m.  c.480.33 m. d.503.29 m. )
