Question
A water motor is supplied from a horizontal 30 cm
pipe and uses 220 liters/s. Discharge take place
through a 60 cm vertical pipe. A differential gage
tapped into the pipe close to the motor shows a
deflection of 1.80 m of mercury. The two points
where the gage was tapped are separated by a
vertical distance of 1m. If the motor is 80 %
efficient, determine the power output.
