B. water supply tank is capable of delivering 0.4 m3/s of water for firefighting purposes in a chemical plant. The water supply is to come from a lake, the elevation of the surface of the lake is 700 m and the elevation of the factory is 750 m from sea level. The water discharge pipe is located at a depth of 100 m from the surface of the lake. The frictional losses in the water line to the plant are given by the relation (0.01 m/s2) L, where L is the length of the pipe line. The water line to the supply tank has an inner diameter of 0.15 m and a length of 9000 m. How much energy must a pump deliver to the water?
