Detailed Solution

By Bernoulli's theorem, 

PA+hAρg+12ρvA2=PB+hBρg+12ρvB2

Since the pipe is horizontal, hAρg and hBρg are both zero.

as a result,

PA+12ρvA2=PB+12ρvB2

PA-PB=12ρ(vB2-vA2)

Now, P1 and P2 are equivalent if and only if velocities v1 and v2 are comparable.

Now that the cross sectional area is the same at both sites, speeds v1 and v2 are equal.

PA=PB when cross-sectional area at A and B is same
