The Metro Manila Waterworks System design the pip by using a 300 mm diameter pipeleins made of cast-iron to last for a longer time. The design flow is 60 liter/sec. Pumping stations were established at a distance "L" from each other. If one pump produces 600 KPa, determine the distance between the pumping stations. Use f = 0.035.
