MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF FLUIDS

Glycerine flows steadily through a horizontal tube of length 1.5 m and radius 1.0cm. If the amount of glycerine collected per second at one end is 4.0 × 10–³ kg s–¹, what is the pressure difference between the two ends of the tube ? (Density of glycerine = 1.3 × 103 kg m–3 and viscosity of glycerine = 0.83 Pa s). [You may also like to check if the assumption of laminar flow in the tube is correct].
