a. Determine the power the pump delivers to
the water. Neglect friction losses.
b. Solve (a), but include a friction head loss
in the pump of 0.5 m, and a friction loss in
the pump of 1 m for every 5 m length of
pipe. The pipe extends 3 m from the
reservoir to B the 12 m from B to C.
c. Considering (b), solve the efficiency of
pump if the input power is 32 hp.
