3. Water flows at the rate of 5 ftls through an inclined pipe. At point A, where the diameter is 12 inches, the pressure is 15 psi. What is the pressure at point B where the diameter is 6 inches and the center of the pipe is 24 inches lower than at point A. a. Draw a clear diagram of the pipe system that indicates the following: (a-1) water flow reflecting the quantities involved in describing fluid flow and (a-2) the quantities that describe Bernoulli's equation. b. Write the Bernoulli's Equation using subscripts U ad L for the upper and lower points respectively. Then determine the pressure at point B?
