Transcribed Image Text:**Problem Statement:**
A flow of 0.03 m³/s must be pumped against a head of 30 m. The pump will be driven by an electric motor with a speed of 2000 rpm. What type of pump should be used and what is the corresponding efficiency?
---
For interactive learning, explore different pump types based on the flow rate, head, and motor speed requirements. The efficiency corresponds to how effectively the pump converts electrical energy into hydraulic energy. Use this example to understand selecting the right pump for specific engineering applications.
