Q/ The laminar flow of water through a pipe is measured by means of a pitot tube situated in the center of the pipe; the reading of a mercury manometer connected to the pitot is 100 mm. The flow is also measured by a venturi meter which connected with the same mercury manometer and the pressure drop across it equals to 300 mm. Find the ratio of venturi to pipe diameter and determine the pressure drop due to friction across the venturi meter.
