MCQ Practice

The pressure drop per unit length of pipe incurred by a fluid 'X' flowing through pipe is $$Delta {text{p}}.$$ If another fluid 'Y' having both the specific gravity & density just double of that of fluid 'X', flows through the same pipe at the same flow rate/average velocity, then the pressure drop in this case will be

A

$$Delta {text{p}}$$

B

$$2Delta {text{p}}$$

C

$$Delta {{text{p}}^2}$$

D

$$frac{{Delta {text{p}}}}{2}$$

Correct Answer: B
