2. A 20-hp suction pump at 70% efficiency draws water from a suction line whose diameter is 200mm and discharges into air thru a line whose diameter is 150 mm. The velocity in the 150mm line is 3.6 m/s. If the pressure at point A in the suction pipe is 34 kPa below the atmosphere, where A is 1.8 m below section B on the 150 mm line, determine the maximum elevation above section B to which water can be raised assuming a head loss of 3 m due to friction.
