Question: Water flows through a cast iron pipe. The pipe has a diameter 0 . 6 [ m ] and is 2 . 2 [ k

Water flows through a cast iron pipe.
The pipe has a diameter 0.6[m] and is 2.2[km]. The discharge in the pipe is 1.3[m3s].
Ignoring minor losses, compute the total headlosses along the pipe in m using Darcy-Weisbach.

Now, let the pipe have diameter 0.6[m] and length 2.8[km] with an elevation drop of 49[m] from an upstream point A to a downstream point B. The discharge in the pipe is 1.4
m3s.
What is the drop in pressure from the upstream to downstream point in [psi]?
