The major losses within a pipe are those that occur through out the lenght of the pipe, they are caused by the interaction of the water particles and the inner surface of the pipe as water flows through it. Now minor losses are those that occur due to fitting and connections in a pipe sytem, such as 90 degree bends or turns, or valves, etc. These cause minor losses. Major losses are more significant than minor losses.

JudyMajor losses in pipes occur due to friction between the fluid and the pipe walls, and are dependent on factors such as flow rate and pipe roughness. Minor losses occur due to sudden changes in flow velocity, such as at pipe bends or fittings, and are typically expressed as equivalent lengths of straight pipe.

What is the name given to the difference in pitch between two notes either sounded simultaneously or in succession?
The name given to the difference in pitch between two notes is called an interval. This difference is measured in semitones or whole tones, and it determines the quality of the interval, such as perfect, major, minor, augmented, or diminished.
What is the natural minor scale parallel to g major?
The natural minor scale parallel to G major is E natural minor. This means it has the same key signature (one sharp, F#) as G major, but starts and ends on the note E.
Is earth a major or a minor planet?
Earth is a major planet. It is the third planet from the Sun in our solar system and one of the four terrestrial planets.
What are the kinds of triads?
There are four types of triads: major, minor, augmented, and diminished. Major triads consist of a root, major third, and perfect fifth. Minor triads have a root, minor third, and perfect fifth. Augmented triads have a root, major third, and augmented fifth. Diminished triads have a root, minor third, and diminished fifth.
What is the difference between harmonic and natural minor?
The harmonic minor scale has a raised seventh degree compared to the natural minor scale, giving it a unique sound with a more pronounced leading tone. This raised seventh allows for stronger resolution of the V-i cadence in minor keys.
