A venturi meter fitted to a pipe of 400 mm in diameter and has a throat diameter of 200 mm. Find the quantity of water flowing when the difference in pressure head between the 400mm pipe and the 200mm throat is 175 mm of mercury. Use g = 9.8m/s² and specific gravity of mercury, s = 13.55. The flow rate in m³/s is: A. 0.34 B. 0.45 C. 0.22 D. 0.36 E. None of the above
