Water flows in the horizontal pipe shown in the figure.  At A the diameter is 5.00 cm and at B the diameter is 4.00 cm.  The fluid in the manometer is mercury, which has a density of 13,600 kg/m3.  The manometer reading h is 4.50 cm.  We can treat water as an ideal fluid having a density of 1000 kg/m3.  What volume of water is flowing through the pipe per second (in m3)?
