An oil with specific gravity of 0.9 and kinematic viscosity of 0.0002 m²/s flows upward through an inclined pipe as shown below. The pressure and elevation are known at sections 1 and 2, 10 m apart. Assuming steady laminar flow, (a) verify that the flow is up, (b) compute hr between 1 and 2, (c) compute discharge Q, (d) compute the average velocity and (e) the Reynolds number.
