Oil flows thru a 50 mm diameter pipe having a head loss of 12 m. The length of the pipe is 120 m. long. If the oil has a Reynold's Number equal to 1600; a. compute the velocity of the oil flowing in the pipe. (unit of the answer is in m/s) b. what is the equivalent viscosity in stokes? (unit of the answer is in stokes)
