4.7. Compute the motor size required to pump 28.3cms(1,000cfs) through a 3,050m(10,000ft) long, 3.66-m(12.0-ft diameter pipeline to an upper reservoir 610m(2,000ft) above the lower reservoir. Use a friction factor of 0.02 and a pump efficiency of 80per cent. Compute the energy input to the motor, if the motor efficiency is 90 percent. Neglect minor losses.
