The velocity profile in fully developed laminar flow in a pipe of diameter D is given by \(u = {u_0}\left( {1 - \frac{{4{r^2}}}{{{D^2}}}} \right)\), where r is the radial distance from the center. If the viscosity of the fluid is μ, the pressure drop across a length L of the pipe is:

A. \(\frac{{\mu {u_0}L}}{{{D^2}}}\)
B. \(\frac{{4\mu {u_0}L}}{{{D^2}}}\)
C. \(\frac{{8\mu {u_0}L}}{{{D^2}}}\)
D. \(\frac{{16\mu {u_0}L}}{{{D^2}}}\)
