In a fully developed turbulent flow through a circular pipe, a head loss of ݄$${{h_1}}$$ is observed. The diameter of the pipe is increased by $$10\% $$ for the same flow rate and a head loss of ݄$${{h_2}}$$ is noted. Assume friction factor for both the cases of pipe flow is the same. The ratio of $${{{h_2}} \over {{h_1}}}$$is closest to
