Move 900 L/minute of water through the pipes. The radius of the pipe at point P is 6 cm and the radius at point Q is 2 cm. Determine the flow rate of the water in units of m/s. (4 points) b) Determine the head of the water between points P and Q. (4 points) Determine the required gauge pressure between points P and Q to maintain this flow rate. (4 points)

Water flows from a 20 -mm-diameter pipe with a flowrate $Q$ as shown in Fig. $P 3.61 .$ Plot the diameter of the water stream. $d,$ as a function of distance below the faucet, $h,$ for values of $0 \leq h \leq 1 \mathrm{m}$ and $0 \leq Q \leq 0.004 \mathrm{m}^{3} / \mathrm{s},$ Discuss the validity of the one-dimensional assumption used to calculate $d=d(h),$ noting, in particular, the conditions of small $h$ and small $Q$.
When the pump shown in Fig. $\mathrm{P} 8.88$ adds 0.2 horsepower to the flowing water, the pressures indicated by the two gages are equal. Determine the flowrate.
