Water at 83 L/sec is flowing inside a 6-inch schedule 40 nominal pipe. Determine the following. a) What is the Reynold’s number of the water? b) What is the maximum velocity in ft/sec of the water at room temperature in the pipe? c) What is the pressure drop reading in mmHg of a pitot tube inserted in the pipe? (The fluid inside the pitot tube is mercury.)   Assume a viscosity of 0.001 Pa*s and density of 1000 kg/m3.
