Water is pumped from a supply reservoir to a ductile iron water transmission line. The high point of the transmission line is at point A 1 km downstream of the supply reservoir and the low point of the transmission is at point B 1 km downstream of point A. If the flow rate through the pipeline is 1m³/s the diameter of the pipe is 750mm and the pressure at A is to be 350 kPa. A) estimate the head that must be added by the pump. B) estimate the power supplied by the pump. C) calculate the water pressure at B.
