5) Water is pumped at a constant rate of 10 m³/h from a large reservoir resting on the floor to the open top of an absorption tower. The point of discharge is 6 m above the floor, and the frictional losses in the 40-mm pipe from the reservoir to the tower amount to 4 J/kg. At what height in the reservoir must the water level be kept if the pump can develop only 0.12 kW?
