(35 points) The pump in the figure below delivers water at 3ft3s from a very large reservoir (standard atmospheric pressure) to a machine located 20 ft higher than the reservoir surface and operating at a vacuum pressure of 4.7 psi . The piping system loses are given by hL=V22g, where =7.5(dimensionless). Assuming a kinetic correction factor of =1.07 and 3 in pipe diameter, find the horsepower required to drive the pump if its efficiency is 80%.
