A pump draws water from reservoir A and lifts it to a higher reservoir B, as shown in Figure P4.2.6. Thehead loss from A to the pump is four times the velocity head in the 10cm pipe, and the head loss fromthe pump to B is seven times the velocity head. The pressure head at the inlet of the pump is -6m .Compute the pressure head the pump must deliver. Why is the pressure head the pump must delivergreater than 50m , the elevation difference between the two reservoirs? Draw the EGL and HGL
