A fireboat draws seawater (SG = 1.025) from a submerged pipe and discharges it through a nozzle, as shown in the figure given below. The total head loss is 6.5 ft. The specific weight of seawater is 63.96 lbf/ft3. If the pump efficiency is 50 percent, calculate the horsepower of the motor required to drive the boat. Pump 6 ft hp 10 ft D = 6 in D = 2 in 120 ft/s
