Question

Fresh water flows through a 7.5 cm diameter pipe at the rate of $0.037\text{ m}^3\text{/s}$. Observations indicate that loss of head equivalent to 9 m occurs over a length 60 m of the pipe. Presuming that kinematic viscosity for water $\nu = 1.14 \times 10^{-6}\text{ m}^2\text{/s}$, make calculations for (i) friction factor (ii) shear friction velocity (iii) thickness of laminar sub layer.
