Question: Problem 6 : Two liquid storage systems are shown in Fig. E 5 . 9 . Each tank has an area of 9 4 .

Problem 6:
Two liquid storage systems are shown in Fig. E5.9. Each tank has an area of 94.24ft2. For System I, the
valve acts as a linear resistance with the flow-head relation q=8.33h, where q is in ft3min and h is in
feet. For System II, variations in liquid level h do not affect exit flow rate q. Suppose that each system is
initially at steady state with ?bar(h)=6ft and ?bar(q)l=50ft3min and that at time t=0 the inlet flow rate
suddenly changes from 50 to 70ft3min. For each system, determine the following information:
(a) The transfer function H'sQi'(s) where the primes denote deviation variables.
(b) The transient response h(t).
(c) The new steady-state levels.
(d) If each tank is 8ft tall, which tank overflows first? When?

please tell me the step by step solution for each especially for a) I dont understand how the transfer function is created, the answer has be solved before but they all have C in it which I dont understand. Can you please make it more understandable
