2. A pump is used to move water (p = 1000 kg/m³) from a lake into a large tank as shown below. The height of the water surface in the tank is 20 meter from the lake surface. The total length of the pipe is L = 100 meter and the pipe diameter is D = 1 meter. The major head loss is estimated as h = LV² where the pipe friction factor f is assumed to be 0.025. Here, V is the flow velocity in the f= D 2g pipe. Determine the flowrate in the pipe. The pump power is W = 2000 Watts
