A pump at elevation (6.0 meters) lifts water from reservoir A (elevation 0.0 meter) through a150-mm diameter pipe and discharges it to reservoir B (elevation 73.0 meters) by means of a 100-mm diameter pipe. The loss of head from A to the suction side (pt.1) of the pump is 3 times the velocity head in the 150-mm diameter pipe and the loss of head from the discharge side (pt.2) to B is 20 times the velocity head in the 100-mm diameter pipe. If Q=12 liters/sec. Compute the horsepower output of the pump. О а. 3.22 hp O b. 23.4 hp О с. 8.75 hр O d. 11.91 hp
