The length AB of a pipe ABC in which the liquid is flowing has diameter (d1) and is suddenly enlarged to diameter (d2) at B which is constant for the length BC. The loss of head due to sudden enlargement is

                I Think that Answer is D.
Becoz according to Bernoulli's Equation.
H = P1/wg-p2/wg = (v1^2-v2^2)/2g.

                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.
                From that we obtain,
p1/wg+v1^2/2g+z1 = p2/wg+v2^2/2g+z2.
