As shown in the figure, a pump draws water from reservoir A (El 25m) and lifts it to reservoir B (El 60m). The loss of head from A to 1 is 2 times the velocity head in the 200 mm pipe and the loss of head from 2 to B is 10 times the velocity head in the 150 mm pipe. Calculate the pressure head at point 1 when the discharge is 0.030 m³/s. Round off your answer to one decimal place.

Fluid Materials

In general terms, anything that flows can be termed as a fluid. In other words, a fluid is any substance that cannot resist shear forces and deforms continuously under the application of external shear forces. Fluid materials differ completely from solid materials such as metals and alloys. For instance, if we consider two infinitesimally small cross-sectional areas of fluid materials and solid materials, and apply shear forces to these elements, both the elements will undergo deformation. Upon releasing the shear force, the element of the solid materials will regain its original orientation, but the element of the fluid materials will keep on deforming continuously under the action of the shear force.
