Finding the pressure in a pipe?

[miamirulz29]

Homework Statement

The 810 mile long alaskan pipeline has a capacity of 2.48e5 m^3/day of oil per day. Along most the pipeline the radius is 60cm. Find the pressure at a point where the pipe has a 30cm radius. Take the pressure in the section with radius 60cm to be 190kPa and the density of oil to be 800 kg/m^3. Assume laminar nonviscous flow. Answer in units kPa

Homework Equations

q= delta v/ delta t

The Attempt at a Solution

My final equation is Pi + [rho(q^2)]/2pi^2 * (1/Ri^4 * R^4).
Is that correct?

A quick way that you can check your equation is with the units.

Does you equation produce a unit in kPa?

Thanks
