Question: ( a ) A 5 0 mm diameter tube gradually expands to 1 0 0 mm diameter tube in a length of 1 0 m

(a) A 50 mm diameter tube gradually expands to 100 mm diameter tube in a length of 10 m . If the tube makes an angle of 20 in upward direction with the horizontal (Fig.2), determine the pressure p2 at section 2 if the tube carries a discharge of 3.925ls and the inlet pressure p1 is 60kNm2, assuming (i) no energy loss, and (ii) a loss of 0.20 m .
(b) Derive Darcy-Weisbach formula for head loss in pipe due to friction.
