Water flows at a volumetric flow rate of 0.25m3/s from reservoir 1 to reservoir 2 through three concrete pipes connected in series. Pipe 1 is 900 m long and has a diameter of 0.16 m. Pipe 2 has a length of 1500 m and a diameter of 0.18 m. Pipe 3 is 800 m long and the diameter is 0.20 m. Neglecting minor losses, determine the difference in surface elevations.
