b) The pressure drop Δp, along a straight pipe of diameter D
has been experimentally studied, and it is observed that
for laminar flow of a given fluid and pipe, the pressure
drop varies directly with the distance I, between pressure
taps. Assume that Δp is a function of D, I, the velocity V,
and the fluid viscosity μ. Use dimensional analysis to
deduce how the pressure drop varies with pipe diameter.
