In a pipe flow, there is an orifice meter and pitot tube attached to the pipe to measure the flow rate. I have the graph of mass flow rate(m) vs manometer reading(h) on log-log paper. This is y= log m vs x= log h What information can i obtain from the slope and the intercept

This is really about logs, not limited to pipe flow. The slope tells you the power of x (manometer reading) that y (mass flow rate) is proportional to at the point of slope measurement. (If the graph is a straight line then the same power relationship applies over the range plotted.) The intercepts tell you the (log of the) value of one variable when the other variable = 1 (since log 1 = 0).

very confusing step. look into over a search engine. that could actually help!
