3. Water flows through a schedule-40 pipe that changes gradually in diameter from 6 in (154 mm) at point A to 18 in (429 mm) at point B. The volumetric flow rate is 5.0 ft³/sec (130 L/s). The respective pressures at points A and B are 10 psia (70 kPa) and 7 psia (48.3 kPa). All losses are insignificant. What are the direction of flow and velocity at point A? (A) 3.2 ft/sec (1 m/s); from A to B (B) 25 ft/sec (7.0 m/s); from A to B (C) 3.2 ft/sec (1 m/s); from B to A (D) 25 ft/sec (7.5 m/s); from A to B
