4. A Venturi meter is installed in a pipeline carrying air. The meter has a diameter of 600 mm at the inlet and 450 mm at the throat. A U-tube connected to the inlet and throat contains water, the difference in levels in the two legs of the tube being 100 mm. Considering the unit weight of air to be 12N/m³, determine the approximate discharge in liters per minute, neglecting friction.
