Question: Applied Hydraulics # 4 . 3 . 8 . Three reservoirs are connected to a junction by branching pipes ( Figure P 4 . 3

Applied Hydraulics #4.3.8.
Three reservoirs are connected to a junction by branching pipes (Figure P4.3.2). An 8,000-ft-long, 3-ft-diameter pipeline carries 75.0cfs of water from reservoir 1(elevation 3,200ft) to junction J. Flow from the junction travels through a 2,000-ft-long, 2.5-ft-diameter pipeline to reservoir 3(elevation 3,130ft). Additional flow from the junction travels through a 3,000-ft-long, 2-ft-diameter pipeline to reservoir 2. Determine the water surface elevation of reservoir 2. All of the pipes are made of PVC and have a Hazen-Williams coefficient of 150.
