A 40-km-long pipeline delivers petroleum at a rate of 4000 barrels per day. The resulting pressure drop

Question:

A 40-km-long pipeline delivers petroleum at a rate of 4000 barrels per day. The resulting pressure drop is 3.45 × 106 Pa. If a parallel line of the same size is laid along the last 18 km of the line, what will be the new capacity of this network? Flow in both cases is laminar and the pressure drop remains 3.45 × 106 Pa.
