Water flows at a rate of 0.05 m³/s from reservoir A to reservoir B through three concrete pipes connected in series, as shown in the figure. Find the difference between water surface elevations in the reservoirs. Neglect all minor losses. Head loss for 400 mm is 0.00051 m/m; for 300mm is 0.0020 m/m; and for 200mm pipe is 0.015 m/m.
