We know the Bernoulli's equation.
From that we obtain,
p1/wg+v1^2/2g+z1 = p2/wg+v2^2/2g+z2.
z1=z2 from this we get,
p1/wg-p2/wg = v1^2/2g-v2^2/2g.
= (v1-v2)^2/2g.
Which is loss of head bcoz p1-p2/wg=H where h=head loss
and wg=row.

Bernaullie's principle: As with having different areas of flow of a fluid through a convergent pipe,give us a reason to apply conservation of energy equation having relation with pressure,velocity and density of the respective fluid.
As for a pipe having two ends with different dimensions of respectively pressure,velocity and densities then we have the equation as-{(p1/wg+v1square/2g+z1)-(p2/wg+v2square/2g+z2)}=constant.
