Water flows through a horizontal, converging pipe and discharges freely into the atmosphere at the exit. Flow is incompressible and head loss is negligible. The inlet diameter is 144 mm , the inlet velocity is
1.1(m)/(s), and the outlet diameter is 59 mm . Assume the specific weight of water is
9790(N)/(m^(3)). The pressure at the inlet is most nearly (in kPa): a. 20820.7 b. 6343.2 c. 6.3 d. 20.8
