A sudden expansion of a pipe is noticed from inlet to outlet. Initially, water is passing through a 2 inches at the entrance, then pipe is expanded up to 4 inches. The inlet and outlet pressures are 50 and 60 psi respectively. The volumetric flow rate of water in cubic feet per seconds at the inlet section is most nearly to:

Water is to be pumped to an atmospheric rooftop storage tank atop a 5-story building, 75 feet above ground-level. A pump station is located at the ground-level. The suction line is a 2-inch ID commercial steel pipe tapped into a municipal supply line maintained at 50 PSIG 5 feet below ground-level. The discharge line is 1.5-inch ID commercial steel, and the total length of pipe is approximately 100 ft. There are two ball valves, a water meter, and gate valve on the discharge line. Determine the pump head required to deliver 40 GPM and the pump power that must be supplied to the water. If a pump is required, what is the motor power required if the pump operates at 55% efficiency?
