Gasoline is piped underground from refineries to major users. The flow rate is 3.00102 m3/s (about 500 gal/ min), the viscosity of gasoline is 1.00103 (N/m2) s, and its density is 680 kg/m3.

(b) What pressure difference must be maintained along each kilometer of the pipe to maintain this flow rate?
An incompressible, nonviscous fluid is initially at rest in the vertical portion of the pipe shown in Figure P15.61a, where L = 2.00 m. When the valve is opened, the fluid flows into the horizontal section of the pipe. What is the fluids speed when all the fluid is in the horizontal section as shown in Figure P15.61b? Assume the cross-sectional area of the entire pipe is constant. Figure P15.61
