A 2 km long pipe of 0.2 m diameter connects two reservoirs. The difference between water levels in the reservoirs is 8 m. The Darcy-Weisbach friction factor of the pipe is 0.04. Accounting for frictional, entry and exit losses, the velocity in the pipe (in m/s) is:
A
0.63
B
0.35
C
2.52
D
1.25

Correct : a
