Water is flowing at a rate of 1.8 L/s is enclosed in a pipe. One end of the pipe has a diameter of 5.0cm; the other end is 19.2 cm lower and has a diameter of 2.6 cm.

A) draw a diagram of the pipe

B) Find the flow velocities in m/s for each section of the pipe.

C) which end of the pipe has a higher fluid pressure?

D) Calculate the pressure difference between the two points in the pipe.
