Question:

Water flows through a horizontal 60-mm-diameter galvanized iron pipe at a rate of \(0.02 \mathrm{~m}^{3} / \mathrm{s}\). If the pressure drop is \(135 \mathrm{kPa}\) per \(10 \mathrm{~m}\) of pipe, do you think this pipe is

(a) a new pipe,

(b) an old pipe with a somewhat increased roughness due to aging, 

(c) a very old pipe that is partially clogged by deposits? Justify your answer.
