Q#1 Pumps GATE CH 2024 NAT +2 marks -0 marks

Water of density 1000\(kg m^{-3}\) is pumped at a volumetric flow rate of \(3.14 ×10^{−2} m^3s^{−1}\) through a pipe of inner diameter 10 cm and length 100 m, from a large reservoir 1 to another large reservoir 2 at a height 50 m above reservoir 1, as shown in figure. The flow in the pipe is in the turbulent regime, with a Tarsier friction factor f = 0.06 and a kinetic energy correction factor α is equal to 1, take g is equal to 9.8 \(ms^{−2}\). If all my losses are negligible, and pump efficiency is 100%, the pump power in kW, rounded off 2 decimal places, is _ _ _ _ _ _
