Question: Figure 4 : Pipe with contraction. The pipe system shown in Figure 4 first rises a height h then contracts from a diameter D 1

Figure 4: Pipe with contraction.
The pipe system shown in Figure 4 first rises a height h then contracts from a diameter D1=5cm to D2=3cm. If
the pipe is moving an inviscid, dense slurry with a density =9600kgm3, and the pressure gauges read the following
in gauge pressure: P1=90kPa,P2=55kPa, and P3=20kPa find the following:
(a) Find the height difference, h, that the pipe system rises.
(b) Determine the flow rate, Q, through the system.
