### Determining the Required Pump Head for a Fluid Flow System#### Problem Statement:A fluid with a specific weight of 78.5 lb/ft³ and a dynamic viscosity of 0.638 lbs/s-ft is flowing at a rate of 20 cfs. The section lengths of the pipe and minor loss coefficients (for the 90° bends) are given below. The pipe is made of galvanized iron. Assuming there are no losses due to the pump connections, determine the required head of the pump and list all minor losses.#### Given Data:- Specific weight of fluid: 78.5 lb/ft³- Dynamic viscosity: 0.638 lbs/s-ft- Flow rate: 20 cfs- Pipe material: Galvanized iron- Pipe diameters: 24 inches at both ends#### Section Lengths:- \( L_1 = 7 \) ft- \( L_2 = 6 \) ft- \( L_3 = 3 \) ft- \( L_4 = 4 \) ft#### Pressures:- Initial pressure = 50 psi- Final pressure = 45 psi#### Diagram Explanation:The provided diagram shows a fluid system with multiple pipe sections and bends, connecting two points with different pressures through a pump. 1. The system begins with a pipe with pressure \( P = 50 \) psi.2. The fluid travels through a straight section \( L_1 \), followed by a vertical drop equivalent to \( L_2 \).3. After \( L_2 \), the fluid enters the pump, travels through section \( L_3 \), and then through a final section \( L_4 \).4. The discharge end of the pipe has a pressure \( P = 45 \) psi.The diagram indicates changes in fluid elevation and the connection through the pump.#### Calculations:##### 1.
