A certain rain cloud at an altitude of 2.10 km contains 3.20 x 10 kq of water vapor. How long would it take for a 2.95-kW pump to raise the amount of water from Earth's surface to the cloud's position? h
Expert Answer
Given values:
Mass of the water vapor, m = 3.20 x 107 kg
Height of water be raises, H = 2.10 km = 2.10 x 103 m
Power of the pump, P = 2.95 Kw =2.95 x 103 W
Let the time taken to raise the water from the earth\'s surface be t
The energy required to raise the water to the altitude H:
