Answer:

f = 0.04042

Explanation:

temperature = 0°C = 273k

p = 600 Kpa

d = 40 millemeter

e = 10 m

change in P = 235 N/m²

μ = 2m/s

R = 188.9 Nm/kgk

we solve this using this formula;

P = ρcos*R*T

we put in the values into this equation

600x10³ = ρcos * 188.9 * 273

600000 = ρcos51569.7

ρcos = 600000/51569.7

=11.63

from here we find the head loss due to friction

Δp/pg = feμ²/2D

235/11.63 = f*10*4/2*40x10⁻³

20.21 = 40f/0.08

20.21*0.08 = 40f

1.6168 = 40f

divide through by 40

f = 0.04042
