Chapter 7, Problem 32P
Sewage at a certain pumping station is raised vertically by 5.49 m at the rate of 1 890 000 liters each day. The sewage, of density 1 050 kg/m3, enters and leaves the pump at atmospheric pressure and through pipes of equal diameter. (a) Find the output mechanical power of the lift station. (b) Assume an electric motor continuously operating with average power 5.90 kW runs the pump. Find its efficiency.

A lawnmower engine ejects 1.00 x 104 J each second while running with an efficiency of 0.200. Find the engine’s horsepower rating, using the conversion factor 1 hp = 746 W.
Water is pumped from a lake to a storage tank 25 m above at a rate of 70 L/s while consuming 22.4 kW of electric power. Disregarding any frictional losses in the pipes and any changes in kinetic energy, determine the overall efficiency of the pump–motor unit.
Flying with a speed of VV∞ = 120 m/s at an altitude of 2000 m, where the density is 1.007 kg/m3, the pilot
calculates the required power to be 61 kW
A) If the power plant is an ICE-propeller with shaft power of 320 kW at sea level, and a propeller efficiency
of 80 %, what are the maximum rates of climb at altitudes of 2000 m and 5000 m if the total aircraft
mass is 2000 kg?
B) Assuming the rate of climb varies linearly with altitude, find the minimum time taken to climb from 2000
m to 5000 m.
