Figure 6.16 shows a fabricated assembly made from three different sizes of standard steel tubing listed in Appendix G.2. The larger tube on the left carries 0.072 m³/s of water. The tee branches into two smaller sections. If the velocity in the 50-mm tube is 12.0 m/s, what is the velocity in the 100-mm tube?
