(1 point) Water flows in a constant-diameter pipe with the following conditions measured: At section (a) Pa = 34.4 psi and za= 56.8 ft; at section(b) P= 29.7 psi and zb= 68.2 ft. Determine the head loss (in feet). Is the flow from (a) to (b) or from (b) to (a)? Explain. (2points) Water flows at a rate of 15 gallons per minute in a new horizontal0.75-in.-diameter galvanized iron pipe. Determine the pressure gradient, AP/I,along the pipe (in psi/ft). Please take epsilon (ɛ) value as 0.0005 ft. You may get the relevant properties from Table A.6 provided in Equation sheet.
