A pump test for air flow is set up as shown below in which the pump draws air from the atmosphere into the 1-ft diameter pipe. The liquid in the differential manometer is water (? = 62.4 ?b/??^3) and the density of air is 0.00238 ?lug/??^3. Assume that the air flow is incompressible and frictionless. (a) Using the piezometer tube, compute the pressure in the pipe. (b) Using the Pitot tube and an energy equation, compute the velocity in the pipe. (c) Assuming that the air far away from the entrance to the pump is at rest (zero velocity), calculate the power delivered by the pump.

Question
A pump test for air flow is set up as shown below in which the pump draws air from the atmosphere into the 1-ft diameter pipe. The liquid in the differential manometer is water (? = 62.4 ?b/??^3) and the density of air is 0.00238 ?lug/??^3. Assume that the air flow is incompressible and frictionless.
(a) Using the piezometer tube, compute the pressure in the pipe.
(b) Using the Pitot tube and an energy equation, compute the velocity in the pipe.
(c) Assuming that the air far away from the entrance to the pump is at rest (zero velocity), calculate the power delivered by the pump.
