Question: Compute the net positive suction head available ( N P S H A ) for the following system: A 1 4 - in diameter pipeline

Compute the net positive suction head available (NPSHA) for the following system: A 14-in diameter pipeline runs from the suction tank to the pump is 69 ft long and has a friction factor of 0.025. The suction reservoir has an elevation of 2,018 feet and the pump elevation is set at 2,008 feet. The design flow rate is 3,417gpm. Assume minor losses of one rounded entrance, and one 90-deg bend (cast/forged) and T=100F. Round your final answer to the nearest foot.
[10 pts] A vertical 4.80 kN load is applied as shown on a wooden post of rectangular cross section, 80120mm(see figure below). Determine the stress at points A, B, C, and D; show all work neatly.
Hint 1: you'll have to combine 3 stresses ( from compression, Mx and Mz).
Hint 2: check your answer for D=+0.375MPa.
a.A=q,(units), Compression / Tension (circle one)
b.B=q,
q,(units), Compression / Tension (circle one)
c.C=q,
