Question

according to Poiseuille’s law, the drop in pressure, DP (dynes/cm2 ), across a tube of
length, L, and diameter, d, at a flow rate of Q (cm 3 /s), for a fluid of viscosity, h (poise) is
given by:
DP = 129LhQ/pd4
Compute DP for a tube 2 m long, 1 mm in diameter, with a flow rate of 1 L/min and a
liquid viscosity of 2 centipoise.
