Q. 2: In certain location of AL Qurayyat water was transported from Wadi Dayqah Dam with the help of pipe line as shown in figure- 3. In order to meet the requirement of water supply of 600 It/sec, a pump was installed. The water surface levels are za = 100 m and za = 90 m. If the pipe diameter is D = 0.50 m, the friction factor is f = 0.02, and the efficiency factor of the pump is n = 0.70, calculate the required pump power. The lengths of the pipes are respectively L, = 500 m and L = 1000 m. Dam Elevation = 100 m pump
A pipe of diameter 20 cm and length 2000 m connects two reservoirs, having difference of water as 20 m. Determine the discharge through the pipe.
Please solve the following. This is hydraulics subject. Please always retain 3 decimal places upon calculation and in the final answer. Please put an appropriate units upon calculation and in the final answer. Put diagram if necessary. Problem: A dedicated pump station supplies 20 MLD of water to an executive subdivision. Determine the power requirement of the pump station if the working head is 55 m and the efficiency of the pump is 85%.
A five cylinders reciprocating pump raises the water level by 150 m and the theoretical discharge is 0.20 m³/s. The velocity in the delivery pipe is 2.0 m/s. Total head loss in pipes is 20 m. What is the input power, if the efficiency of the pump is 0.87?
7. When just full, a reservoir has a surface area of 0.8 km², and this area is approximately constant as the water depth above this level, h, increases (where h is in metres).

Please provide solution asap with explanation
Two reservoirs A and B have elevations of 250 m and 100 m,respectively. The two tanks are connected by a 250-mm diameterpipe, 250-m long, with a turbine placed along its length. If the flow ofwater in the pipe is 140 L/s and C = 120, then:Determine the power output of the turbine in kW if the efficiency ofthe turbine is 85%.
A dam supplies to a suburban area using a 0.21m diameter pipeline that is 800m long. For the water to reach the intended reservoir, a pump is needed to raise the flow to a point 125m above the pump. If the flow within the pipe is 0.11 m3/s, determine the savings in horsepower if the engineers decided to replace the old pipe (f = 0.034 with a new 0.29m diameter pipe with f = 0.024.
3. At a particular time, the storage in a river reach is 60 x 10³ m³. At that time, the inflow into the reach is 10 m³/s and the outflow is 16 m³/s. after two hours, the inflow and the outflow are 18 m3/s and 20 m³/s respectively. Determine the change in storage during two hours period and the storage volume after two hours. 4 500 x 106 m³ of water has been stored in the reservoir of a dam at the beginning of November
