Assuming it isn't glued, just stuck, here are a handful of suggestions that have worked for me. (1) never stick PVC pipe and fittings together until they are glued and ready to fit (yeah, I know, do as I say. . . .), (2)work with it by wobbling, NOT by twisting, (3)if the pipe is 1/2", slip a 9/16" box-end wrench over the far end, place the pipe snugly under your "off" arm while holding wrench steady with that hand. then tap wrench with mallet (rawhide, if available), TIP: many rapid light taps--striking parallel to the pipe--on the wrench are far more effective than one or two heavy hits. At this point, you've probably wasted more time (spelled m-o-n-e-y) than the fitting is worth; saw it off and buy a new one OR saw it off, put a coupling on it and install as planned, but don't put them together until you're ready to install. The beauty of Schedule 40 PVC pipe is that you can almost never make an unrepairable mistake. Buy a few extra fittings and couplings; if you don't need them, save them for next time!

How much water can be pumped through a half inch pipe?

If you are threading one half inch diameter steel pipe and it is going between two female fittings how much pipe needs to be cut if your center to center distance between the fittings is nine inches?
I'm confused by your use of the term, center to center. I'm guessing you mean from the face of the fitting where the pipe threads in. You can usually screw in about 1/2 inch of pipe into a female fitting, so you would need 10 inches to end up with 9 in between. You can screw this together without a union in between? You can only put pipe together in one direction unless you use a union.
