Because of the dry seasons, water becomes scarce. One way to resolve this water problem is by building an underground well. A submerged pump was used to pump water from this well. The pump used is 4-kW with an efficiency of 70 percent and submerged in the underground water. Water was pumped to the reservoir with a free surface 30 m above the underground water level. The pipe diameter is 7 cm on the pump's intake side and 5 cm on the discharge side. Determine the maximum flow rate of water that the pump can deliver. [4 marks]
