A leak was identified along a straight 300-mm PVC pipe. If the pressure gauge upstream and downstream the leak registered 75 kPa and 60 kPa, respectively, determine the rate of discharge of the leak and the flow in the pipe downstream of the leak. Consider 0.085 cms initial flow rate and 1.5 m total head lost in the system.
