V Thing Pipe area = 0.10 m2 Water flows at a rate of 1.6 m /s from a large tank and passes through a "thing" which is either a turbine or a pump, as shown in the figure. The water elevation is z = 30m and head loss is known to be 0.9v2/2g. Determine 1) is the "thing" a pump or a turbine? 2) what is the head [m] added or removed by the thing?
