Question

A pipe AB carries water and tapers uniformly from a diameter of 0.1 m at A to 0.2 m at B over a length of 2 m. Pressure gauges are installed at A, B and also at C, the midpoint of AB. If the pipe centerline slopes upwards from A to B at an angle of 30° and the pressures recorded at A and B are 2.0 and 2.3 bar, respectively. (1 bar = 100 kPa)

Determine the flow, in m^3/s through the pipe at C neglecting all losses. (1 bar = 100 kPa). (Please round-off final answer to four decimal places)
Determine the pressure in bars, recorded at C neglecting all losses. (Please round-off final answer to 2 decimal places)
