The discharge of water through a horizontal pipe is 0-25 m'/s. Its diameter, which is 200 mm, suddenly enlarges to 400 mm. If the intensity of pressure of water in the smaller pipe is 120 kN/m², determine : (1) Loss of head due to sudden enlargement, (ii) Intensity of pressure in the large pipe, and (ii) Power lost due to enlargement.
