The turbine shown below develops 120 hp (66000 ft Ib/s) when the flow rate of water is 15 ft /s. If all losses are negligible, determine the pressure difference across the turbine (i.e., P4-P3). Answer should be in units of Ib/ft?. (Specific weight of water = 62.4 lb/ft3) P4 12 in.. 12 in. T Free jet
Note: Use three decimal places and no need to input the unit. A 36-in-diameter pipeline carries oil (SG = 0.89) at 1 million barrels per day (bbl/day) (1 bbl = 42 U.S. gal). The friction head loss is 13 ft/1000 ft of pipe. It is planned to place pumping stations every 10 mi along the pipe. Estimate the horsepower which must be delivered to the oil by each pump. (in hp)

The pump draws oil with specific gravity of 0.90 from a reservoir and delivers it to the hydraulic cylinder. The cylinder has an inside diameter of 5.0 inch and in 15 seconds the piston must travel 20 inches while exerting a force of 11,000 lb. It is estimated that there are energy losses of 11.5 lb-ft/lb in the suction pipe and 35.0 lb-ft/lb in the discharge pipe. Both pipes are 3/8-in Scheulde 80 steel pipe with inside diameter of 0.423 inch. Calculate the pressure at the cylinder.
