Find the discharge of water flowing through a pipe 40cm diameter placed in an inclined position where a venturi meter is inserted, having a throat diameter of 20 cm. The difference of pressure between the main and throat is measured by a liquid of specific density 0.6 in an inverted U-tube which gives a reading of 30cm. A) Take the coefficient of discharge to be 0.92. B) The loss of head between the main and throat is 0.2 times the kinetic head of the pipe.
