Water is pumped at the rate of 20 m3/s from the reservoir located at elevation 100 m and out through a 1.5-m suction line 200 m long connected to a steel pipe of 1.2-m diameter (after the pump) that is 150 m long to another reservoir (Elevation 140 m). If the pump is located at Elevation 110 m, take the Hazen William's Constant to be 100 for all the pipes, determine the electrical rating of the pump if it is known to be 86% efficient.

Please answer the problem asap, thank you!

Water is pumped at the rate of 20 m3/s from the reservoir located at elevation 100 m and out
through a 1.5-m suction line 200 m long connected to a steel pipe of 1.2-m diameter (after the
pump) that is 150 m long to another reservoir (Elevation 140 m). If the pump is located at
Elevation 110m, take the Hazen William's Constant to be 100 for all the pipes, determine the
electrical rating of the pump if it is known to be 86% efficient.
