Underground water is to be pumped by an 76% efficient 5-kW submerged pump to a pool whose free surface is 30 m above the underground water level. The diameter of the pipe is 7 cm on the intake side and 5 cm on the discharge side. Take the density of water to be 1 kg/L = 1000 kg/m³. Assume the elevation difference between the pump inlet and the outlet and the effect of the kinetic energy correction factors to be negligible. NOTE: This is a multi-part question. Once an answer is submitted, you will be unable to return to this part. V Pool 30 m Determine the maximum flow rate of water. The maximum flow rate of water is 1m³/s.
