Water from a large tank (free surface) is used for irrigation and is pumped over a ridge through a 70cm diameter pipe, and a pressure of 190 kPa is maintained at the summit, where the pipe is 85m above the tank surface. The discharge is 1.50 m³/s with a head loss of 4.0 J/N between the tank and the summit. If the pump is 80% efficient, what is the input power furnished to the water?
