Water is pumped from reservoir A through 1850 m pipeline 600 mm across a valley to a second reservoir C. the water surface elevation of reservoir A is at elevation 61 m and that of C is at elevation 91m. If during pumping, the pressure at B which is located midway of the 600 mm pipe and at elevation 30 is 100 kPa. Compute the flow rate and the horsepower exerted by the pump if f = 0.02.
