A centrifugal pump lifts 2.4 m3/min of water to a height of 20 m through a pipe line with constant diameter of 0.15 m. The total length of the pipeline is 100 m. Considering the minor losses to be 0.33 m and the overall efficiency of the pump to 70%, find the power input to the pump. Take friction coefficient in the pipe line to be 0.015. Take g = 9.81 m/s2 and density of water to be 1000 kg/m3.
