We know Delta P friction = rho * f * V^2 / 2 D.gc , the solution says that Delta P friction is proportional to the square of the velocity, but this assumes that the coefficient of friction is independant of the velocity, which is not true. in laminar flows f=64/Re and Re=V.D/kinematic viscisity. if you replace f in the equation of delta P, the delta P becomes proportinal to V not to V^2.
