Question

Water (density 1000 kg/m31000\text{ kg/m}^3) flows through an inclined pipe of uniform diameter. The velocity, pressure and elevation at section A are VA=3.2 m/sV_A = 3.2\text{ m/s}, pA=186 kPap_A = 186\text{ kPa} and zA=24.5 mz_A = 24.5\text{ m}, respectively, and those at section B are VB=3.2 m/sV_B = 3.2\text{ m/s}, pB=260 kPap_B = 260\text{ kPa} and zB=9.1 mz_B = 9.1\text{ m}, respectively. If acceleration due to gravity is 10 m/s210\text{ m/s}^2 then the head lost due to friction is ________ m (round off to one decimal place).
