Consider an under ground water source whose free surface is 60 m below ground level. The water is to be raised 5 m above the ground by a pump. The diameter of the pipe is 10 cm at the inlet and 15 cm at the exit. Neglecting any heat inter action with the surroundings and frictional heating effects, determine the power input to the pump required for steady flow of work at a rate of 15 lps.
