Determine the cost of pumping 300,000 lit/hr of oil having sp. gr of 0.90 and viscosity 30 c.p through a pipeline, 25cm diameter and 50 km long. It may be assumed that the efficiency of pump together with motor is 50% and power costs 40 paisa/kwh. The pipe line is horizontal.                            1 h.p = 0.736 kwh                            f = 0.046/Re0.20
