You have available a 550 watts pump with 70% efficiency. Is it possible to use this pump to transfer 10 m3/hr of a liquid through a 0.047 m inside diameter pipe, from one open tank to another, if the liquid is discharged at a point 10 m above the liquid level in the suction tank and the total friction losses are 50 J/kg? The density of the liquid is 1050 kg/m3 and the viscosity is 2 cP.
