A gas (density = 1.5 kg/m3, viscosity = 2 × 10‒5 kg/m.s) flowing through a packed bed (particle size = 0.5 cm, porosity = 0.5) at a superficial velocity of 2 m/s causes a pressure drop of 8400 Pa/m. The pressure drop for another gas, with density of 1.5 kg/m3and viscosity of 3 × 10‒5kg/m.s flowing at 3 m/s will be________________?

A. 8400 Pa/m
B. 12600 Pa/m
C. 18900 Pa/m
D. 16800 Pa/m
