The loss of head due to viscosity for laminar flow in pipes is (where d = Diameter of pipe, $$l$$ = Length of pipe, v = Velocity of the liquid in the pipe, $$\mu $$ = Viscosity of the liquid and w = Specific weight of the flowing liquid)
A. $$\frac{{4\mu {\text{v}}l}}{{{\text{w}}{{\text{d}}^2}}}$$
B. $$\frac{{8\mu {\text{v}}l}}{{{\text{w}}{{\text{d}}^2}}}$$
C. $$\frac{{16\mu {\text{v}}l}}{{{\text{w}}{{\text{d}}^2}}}$$
D. $$\frac{{32\mu {\text{v}}l}}{{{\text{w}}{{\text{d}}^2}}}$$
