Question 43
CHNAT2 marksNeeds review
Liquid water is pumped at a volumetric flow rate of 0.02 m
s
from Tank I to Tank II, as shown in the figure.
Both the tanks are open to the atmosphere. The total frictional head loss for the pipe system is 1.0 m of water.
In addition, use the following data and assumptions:
Density of water is 1000 kg m
Acceleration due to gravity is 9.81 m s
Efficiency of the pump is 100%
The liquid surfaces in the tanks have negligible velocities
The power supplied (in W) by the pump to lift the water is ________ (round off to 1 decimal place).
