Review Conceptual Example 6 as an aid in understanding this problem. Consider the pump on the right side of the drawing, which acts to reduce the air pressure in the pipe. The air pressure outside the pipe is one atmosphere. Find the maximum depth from which this pump can extract water from the well.
Figure below shows a siphon that is used to draw water from a tank. The siphon tube has an inside area of . The exit nozzle at point F has an inside area of . The distances are , , and , respectively. Find the pressure at point D_______

A pump operating at 1750 rpm delivering 500 gpm against a total head of 150 ft. Changes in the
piping system have increased the total head to 360 ft. At what rpm should the pump be operated
to achieve this new head at the same efficiency?
