Euler's Method With Mass Balance o.d.e's

Hi

I'm doing a practice paper for a past mathematical modelling exam. I've attached the problem

What I'm having trouble with is simplifying the equations and variables into a differential equation that is solvable with Euler's Method.

What I have currently is the sqrt(h1-h2) in the equation which leads to an imaginary number so I don't think I have done it correctly. ( As h1<h2..I think the diagram is also misleading)

If someone could help me out with getting the right equation I should(hopefully) be able to do the next part.

Thanks

I'm posting this is another forum as well, need help asap.

P.S the second question doesn't need to be attached, it is:
Use Euler's method to make a single step to predict the levels in both tanks after 5 seconds.

I also posted this is the differential equation forum but with only 6 people viewing...

This is what I have but its the square root of a negative number that is confusing me

Thread 'Direction Fields and Isoclines'
I sketched the isoclines for $$ m=-1,0,1,2 $$. Since both $$ \frac{dy}{dx} $$ and $$ D_{y} \frac{dy}{dx} $$ are continuous on the square region R defined by $$ -4\leq x \leq 4, -4 \leq y \leq 4 $$ the existence and uniqueness theorem guarantees that if we pick a point in the interior that lies on an isocline there will be a unique differentiable function (solution) passing through that point. I understand that a solution exists but I unsure how to actually sketch it. For example, consider a...
