A pipe 100 mm bore diameter carries oil of density 900 kg/m³ at a rate of 4 kg/s. The pipe reduces to 60 mm bore diameter and rises 120 mm in altitude. The pressure at this point is atmospheric (zero gauge). Assuming no frictional losses, determine: a. The volume/s b. The velocity at each section c. The pressure at the lower end
