Q.3: In Fig. 3 below, the pump move water from tank A to pressurized Tank B at rate of 100 m3 in 5 min. Perform appropriate calculation to determine if the pump with 2.5 hp works for this purpose. Repeat the calculation and determine if the pump works with air pressure in Tank B of 2.5 atm instead 1.5 atm.
