A3-inch diameter water pipe carries a flow rate of 6 gallons per minute. The pipe is 100 feet long and has a gate valve, two 45-degree elbows, and a sudden c factor for the pipe is 0.02 and the minor loss coefficients for the gate valve, elbows, and contraction are 12, 1.5, and 0.5, respectively. Determine the head loss due to friction and minor losses in the pipe, assuming the water temperature is 68°F and the density of water is 62.4 b
