Question 49
CENAT2 marksNeeds review
Three reservoirs P, Q, and R are interconnected by pipes as shown in the figure (not drawn to the scale). Piezometric head at the junction S of the pipes is 100 m. Assume acceleration due to gravity as 9.81 m/s
and density of water as 1000 kg/m
. The length of the pipe from junction S to the inlet of reservoir R is 180 m. 
Considering head loss only due to friction (with friction factor of 0.03 for all the pipes), the height of water level in the lowermost reservoir (in m, round off to one decimal place) with respect to the datum, is _____.
