length of the 10-in-ID pipes is 62 ft. and the friction factor is taken as 0.022. If the pump head H
can be defined as a function of discharge Q in ft^3/s is: H = 365 - (0.04718Q^2), in feet.

shown in Figure 1 and discharges into the atmosphere with a velocity of 3 m/s. Minor losses are negligible. (a) If
the efficiency of the pump is 70%, how much power is being supplied to the pump? (b) What is the NPSHA at the
