8. A pump at the bottom of a 0.60 meter deep fishpond sprays water from the surface at 2.4 liters/minute. If the intake pipe at the bottom of the pond and output pipe at the waters surface each have a 1.2cm diameter
a) what is the total pressure at the bottom of the pond where the intake is located?
b) what is the magnitude of air pressure acting on the spray at its highest point
c) what is the velocity of the water in the spray at the highest point?
d) what is the height of the fountain spray?

A pump takes water at 60°F from a large reservoir and delivers it to the bottom of an open elevated tank 25 ft above the reservoir surface through a 3 inch ID pipe. The inlet to the pump is located 10 ft below the water surface, and the water level in the tank is constant at 160 ft above the reservoir surface. The pump delivers 150 gpm. If the total loss of energy due to friction in the piping system...

A small water pump is used for an irrigation project. The pump takes water in from a river at 10oC, 100 kPa at a mass flow rate of 16.83 kg/s. The exit line enters a pipe that goes up to an elevation 26.15 mm above the pump and river, where the water runs into an open channel. Assume the process is adiabatic and that the water stays at 10 oC. Find the required pump work.
