A pipe of 0.7 m diameter has a length of 6 km and connects two reservoirs A and B. The Ans water level in reservoir A is at an elevation 30 m above the water level in reservoir B. Halfway along the pipeline, there is a branch through which water can be supplied to a third reservoir C. The friction factor of the pipe is 0.024. The quantity of water discharged into reservoir C is 0.15 m3/s. Considering the acceleration due to gravity is 9.81 m/s2 and neglecting minor losses, calculate the discharge (in m3/s) into the reservoir B.
