A pump draws water from reservoir A and lifts it to reservoir B as shown in the figure. The loss of head from A to 1 is 3 times the velocity head in the 150-mm pipe and the loss of head from 2 to B is 20 times the velocity head in the 100- mm pipe. Compute the horsepower output of the pump and the pressure heads at 1 and 2 when the discharge 12 L/s.

Number 4 only. will upvote anyone who will answer. Fluid mechanics. Thank you
Subject: Fluid mechanic Provide complete solution.
The fluid flow rate was 1 m3 / s and the head was 10 m in the experiment performed at 2000 rev/min by water with the 1/4 ratio model of a centrifugal pump designed to be used for oil. Calculate the power given by the pump to the fluid when the prototype pump operates at 1000 rev/min (ρ water = 1000 kg / m3, ρ oil = 800 kg / m3)
