I beg you answer it its very important for me .
(a) Water flows by gravity from one lake to another as illus-
trated; the surface levels of the lakes differ by an eleva-
tion of h= 50 ft. If the volumetric flow rate is steady at
Q = 80 gallons per minute, what is the associated loss
of available energy?
(b) A pump is to be installed to pump the water from the
lower lake to the upper lake with the same flow rate
as above (Q = 80 gpm). If the amount of energy loss
is assumed to be the same as in part (a), how much
mechanical power must be supplied by the pump?
Answer: (a) loss = 1600 ft-lb/slug, (b) Wpump = 2.0

A two storey building has two faucets, one in the basement and one in the first
floor. The maximum water (p= 1000 kg/m³) velocity at the basement faucet,
when the first floor faucet is closed, is 13 m/s. The faucet diameter is 1.5 cm.
Neglect all losses.
(a) How much is the maximum velocity at the first floor faucet, when the
basement faucet is closed?
(b) What would be a maximum height (from the basement floor) for a faucet,
to still get a maximum exit velocity of 6 m/s?

- During a trip to the beach (Patm = 101 kPa), a car runs out of gasoline (density is 750 kg/m^3), and it becomes necessary to siphon gas out of another nearby car to a tank of a volume of 4 litres using a hose whose cross-sectional area is 0.2 cm^2. The shown setting is used where L1=0.7 m and L2=2.2 m. Consider point 1 to be at the free surface of gasoline in the tank so that P_1= 1 atm, V_1 ~= 0 since the tank is large relative to the tube diameter.
