Water flows through a pipe at 14 cfs. At a point where the pipe diameter is 18 in, the pressure is 30 psi; at a second point, further along the flow path and 2 ft lower than the first, the diameter is 9 in and the pressure is 18 psi. Find the pipe friction head loss between the two points. Neglect other head losses.
