A pump has a 100 mm diameter suction pipe and a 75 mm discharge pipe. The capacity is 15 L/s of water. A water-mercury manometer is installed in the inlet which reflects a vacuum pressure of 198mm of Hg. The mercury level on the suction side is 100 mm below the pipe centerline. The pressure gauge 200 mm above the pump inlet recorded a pressure of 0.95 bar. The measured input powe was 3.2 kW. Find the efficiency of the pump. Select the correct response(s): 75.12 % 60.42 % 59.01 % 80.43 %
