Question

A water supplying pipe of diameter 14 cm, is used to pump the water to the house in the Tanuf hill at the height of 60 m above the ground.  The flowrate at the end of the pipe is 180 lit/s.  The pressure gauge is connected at the inlet of the pipe in the ground and measured as 35.5 N/cm2.  

Find the following:

(i) The kinetic energy per unit weight at the entry of pipe (in m) 

(ii) Pressure head at the inlet (in m) 

(iii) Total available energy per unit weight of the water at the pipe entry (unit in m)
