Question: Problem 3 . ( 3 0 pts + 5 pts ) Consider the two liquid storage tanks shown in Figure 3 . The volumetric flowrate

Problem 3.(30 pts +5 pts) Consider the two liquid storage tanks shown in Figure 3. The volumetric
flowrate of the stream that connects the two tanks is proportional to the difference between the two levels
F1=h2-h1R1, which is considered positive when liquid flows from the second to the first tank. The
volumetric flowrate of the exit stream is F2=h2R2.
a.(15 pts) Write down a state space model for this system.
b.(15 pts) Derive the transfer function between Fin and h2.
c.(+5pts) If A1=1m2,A2=2m2,A2=2m2,R1=1min.m-2 and R2=0.5min.m-2, calculate
the response of h2 to a step increase in Fin by 1m3min.
