Water with a specific volume of 0.001 m3×kg-1 flows through a centrifugal pump that operates under steady flow conditions at a volumetric flow rate of 3.0 m3×min-1 from an initial pressure of 75 kPa to a final pressure of 220 kPa. The diameter of the suction inlet to the pump is 12 cm and the diameter of the discharge outlet is 8 cm. If the suction and discharge outlets are at the same level and no change in internal energy, determine the work (HP) done on the water by the pump
