Two new cast-iron pipes (ε = 0.26 mm) in series connect two reservoirs. Both pipes are 300 m long and have diameters of 0.6 m and 0.4 m, respectively. There is a valve in the 0.6 m diameter line with K = 10. The elevation of water surface in reservoir A is 80 m. The discharge of 10°C water from reservoir A to reservoir B is 0.5 m3/s. Find the elevation of the surface of reservoir B. Assume a sudden contraction at the junction and the entrance and exit is sharp

Two new cast-iron pipes (ε = 0.26 mm) in series connect two reservoirs. Both pipes
are 300 m long and have diameters of 0.6 m and 0.4 m, respectively. There is a valve
in the 0.6 m diameter line with K = 10. The elevation of water surface in reservoir A is
80 m. The discharge of 10°C water from reservoir A to reservoir B is 0.5 m3/s. Find the
elevation of the surface of reservoir B. Assume a sudden contraction at the junction
and the entrance and exit is sharp.
