Question

Water is pumped from a reservoir to a tank suspended 12 m above the reservoir. The water flows through the same size pipe throughout the process. Both the reservoir and the tank are open to the atmosphere. If friction in the pipes consumes 20% of the pump energy, determine the mass flow of water if a 2 hp pump is used. Assume the liquid water has a density of 1 g/cm3
