A 150 mm diameter pipe bends through 90° in a horizontal plane and while bending changes its diameter to 60 mm as shown in FIGURE Q2. The pressure in the 200 mm diameter pipe is 200 kN m-2 gauge. The volume flow of water through the pipe is 0.08 m³ s-1. Both inlet and outlet pipes are in the same horizontal plane. The pressure in the 60 mm diameter pipe is 90 kN m-2 gauge. Neglect all losses of mechanical energy.

Question
A 150 mm diameter pipe bends through 90° in a horizontal plane and while
bending changes its diameter to 60 mm as shown in FIGURE Q2. The
pressure in the 200 mm diameter pipe is 200 kN m-2 gauge. The volume flow
of water through the pipe is 0.08 m³ s-1. Both inlet and outlet pipes are in the
same horizontal plane. The pressure in the 60 mm diameter pipe is 90 kN m-2
gauge. Neglect all losses of mechanical energy.
