The intake in Figure below has cross-sectional area of 0.74 m2and water flow at 0.40 m/s. At  the outlet, distance D = 180 m below the intake, the cross-sectional area is smaller than at the  intake and the water flows out at 9.5 m/s into equipment. What is the pressure difference  between inlet and outlet?
