Answer [A] is correct. Because in the question ' f ' is mentioned as Darcy's coefficient/ Darcy's friction factor which is named after the Frenchmen Henry Darcy. It should not be confused with the friction coefficient/ Fanning friction factor, named after American engineer John Fanning. If ' f ' is given as Fanning friction factor then answer D is correct.

I think answer [D] will be correct.
According to R.S. Khurmi clearly written f=Darcyes coefficient.
