A pump is being utilized to deliver a flow rate of 500 li/sec from a reservoir of surface elevation of 65 m to another reservoir of surface elevation 95 m. The total length and diameter of the suction and discharge pipes are 500 mm, 1500 m and 300 mm, 1000 m respectively. Assume a head lose of 2 meters per 100 m length of the suction pipe and 3 m per 100 m length of the discharge pipe. What is the required horsepower of the pump?(PLEASE INCLUDE DRAWING) USE BERNOULLI'S ENERGY EQUATION
