Answer:

0.067wc

Explanation:

The formula is actual static pressure loss = (total equivalent divided by 100) multiplied by rate of friction

We substitute values

actual static pressure = 0.1

Total equivalent length = 150 ft

0.1 = (150ft/100) multiplied by Rate of friction

Friction rate at 100ft = 0.067

So we have that the required friction needed is 0.067wc
