Assuming a frictionless pipeline, how many litres of water can be raised in a 2500m vertical shaft in 35 minutes by a 550kw pump? (1litre= 1kg)
Energy Produced by pump to raise the water is
E=Pt =(550*103)(35*60) =1.155*109 Joules
Since E=mgh
=>m =E/gh = 1.155*109/9.8*2500
m=4.714*104 litres

A pump is pumping water at a flow rate of 1200 litres per minute. In the pump the mechanical energy of the water increases by 250 J/kg. The density of water is 1000 kg/m3. a) Determine the pressure difference between the pump outlet and the pump inlet. Assumptions: there are no frictional losses in the pump, and differences in velocity and elevation between inlet and outlet of the pump can be neglected. b) Show that the mechanical power added to...
Question 26 How much water a pump of 2kW can raise in one minute to a height of 10m? (g-10m/s2) [LO: PHY] O 2000 litres 10 litres 1000 litres 1200 litres
A cylindrical jar that can hold 1.5 litres of water is 7/10th part full. Approximately how much water (in litres) should be poured out of the jar so that it becomes 7/10th part empty?
Describe how surge tower can help in reducing pressure in pipeline subjected to water hammer phenomena. A surge tower is required to be installed at the downstream end of a tunnel in a hydroelectric scheme to dampen the effect of waterhammer in the case of pump or electrical failures when the flow to the turbine is stopped suddenly. It has been anticipated that the diameter of the surge tower to be 10 m. Determine the height required for the surge...

How many litres of oxygen gas are needed to react completely with 16.2 g of hydrogen gas to produce water (assume STP)? Start by writing the balanced reaction.
Many cities have water tanks raised high off the ground to produce pressure for their residence. If one such water tank had a diameter of 4.70 m and its water level being 20 8 m above the ground What would be the pressure at ground level if the water was,not being used? (static) Number Units If at ground level a faucet had an opening with a diameter of 2 10 cm, how fast would the water come out of the...
