An orifice meter is used to measure the flow rate (fluid velocity) in a pipe. The flow rate is related to the pressure drop by the following equation:
u=c \sqrt{ \frac{ \Delta P }{ \rho } }
where u is the fluid velocity, delta P is the pressure drop, rho is the density of the flowing fluid, and c is a proportionality constant.
(a) Determine the units of c in the SI system.
(b) Determine the units of c in American engineering units.
