By calculating the areas of circles with diameters 6 and 4 and comparing those:
pi3^2=pi9
pi2^2=pi4
pi9/pi4=9/4=2.25
So the 6 inch pipe holds 2.25 times as much as the 4 inch pipe.
A 4 inch drill pipe torque is used for fishing in small casing.
Yes, a single 4-inch pipe can carry more volume than two 2-inch pipes. The cross-sectional area of a 4-inch pipe is significantly larger, allowing it to transport more fluid. Specifically, the area of a 4-inch pipe is approximately 12.57 square inches, while the combined area of two 2-inch pipes is about 6.28 square inches. Therefore, the 4-inch pipe will have a higher flow capacity.

The diameter of a 4-inch pipe is 4 inches, which is the nominal size commonly used in plumbing and piping systems. This measurement refers to the internal diameter of the pipe, though the actual outer diameter may be slightly larger depending on the pipe's wall thickness and material.

Every time! lol Seriously a 10-inch pipe is 5/4 of an 8-inch pipe

Pipe size refers to the diameter of the pipe (in inch).
1/2 inch for 1/2 inch pipe.
The recommended diameter for a 4 inch drain pipe in a residential plumbing system is typically 4 inches.

The volume of water in a 4-inch diameter, 1-foot section of pipe is 0.6528 gallons of water.
It is based on the flow area, which is proportional to the square of the diameter. 2 squared = 4. 4 squared = 16. So, the 4 inch pipe can take 16/4 = 4 times the volume of the 2 inch pipe. It might be less confusing if you had picked sizes other than 2 and 4. This is a rough calculation, since pipe inside diameters are not the same as nominal sizes, but close enough for most purposes.
1/8th per inch
The radius is half of the 4 inch diameter. Therefore, the radius is 2 inches.
That's 3/4" pipe, not 3.4" prehaps it would deliver more pressure through the 1/2 inch pipe than 3/4 inch. 3/4" pipe will be less restrictive over the course of the run. Otherwise, no. 1/2" Copper Pipe will do fine, since it has a smoother bore, less restrictive, no lime and rust build-up. The only reason for you to use 3/4" pipe is if you want more volume. The pressure remains the same.
