The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem of calculating the power required to pump water from a depth of 10 meters and deliver it through a pipe to a height of 10 meters at a rate of 0.2 m³/s, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the parameters**: - Depth of water: 10 m - Height to which water is delivered: 10 m - Volume of water delivered per second: 0.2 m³/s - Density of water: 1000 kg/m³ (standard value) 2. **Calculate the total height (h)**: - The total height (h) that the water is raised is the sum of the depth from which it is pumped and the height to which it is delivered. \[ h = \text{depth} + \text{height} = 10 \, \text{m} + 10 \, \text{m} = 20 \, \text{m} \] 3. **Calculate the mass of water pumped per second**: - The mass (m) of the water pumped per second can be calculated using the formula: \[ m = \text{density} \times \text{volume} \] \[ m = 1000 \, \text{kg/m}^3 \times 0.2 \, \text{m}^3 = 200 \, \text{kg} \] 4. **Calculate the potential energy (E) gained by the water**: - The potential energy gained when raising the mass of water to height h is given by: \[ E = m \times g \times h \] - Using \( g = 9.8 \, \text{m/s}^2 \): \[ E = 200 \, \text{kg} \times 9.8 \, \text{m/s}^2 \times 20 \, \text{m} \] \[ E = 200 \times 9.8 \times 20 = 39200 \, \text{Joules} \] 5. **Calculate the power (P) required**: - Power is defined as energy per unit time. Since we are calculating the power required per second: \[ P = \frac{E}{t} \] - Here, \( t = 1 \, \text{s} \): \[ P = \frac{39200 \, \text{J}}{1 \, \text{s}} = 39200 \, \text{Watts} \] 6. **Convert power to kilowatts**: - To express the power in kilowatts: \[ P = \frac{39200 \, \text{W}}{1000} = 39.2 \, \text{kW} \] ### Final Answer: The power required to pump the water is **39.2 kW**. ---
