Q2(b) Water (density,p = 1000 kg/m^3) is flowing in a straight new cast iron pipe of 100 mm diameter and its length is 520 m. The flow velocity is 2.5 m/s. Given the friction factor is 0.0066 and the dynamic viscosity is 8.9x10^−4 Pa.s. Calculate the Reynolds number (determine the state of flow) and the friction head loss using the Darcy-Weisbach formula
