Explanation: ontop of a tall building, you drop a small peace of metal covered in zinc. it is possible to be very dangerus because of gravity. some one walking on the side walk who gets hit in the head can get a concusion maybe even a brain injury.

64A geothermal pump is used to pump brine whose density is 1050 kg/m3at a rate of 0.3 m3/s from a depth of 200 m. For a pump eff

Answer:

835,175.68W

Explanation:

Calculation to determine the required power input to the pump

First step is to calculate the power needed

Using this formula

P=V*p*g*h

Where,

P represent power

V represent Volume flow rate =0.3 m³/s

p represent brine density=1050 kg/m³

g represent gravity=9.81m/s²

h represent height=200m

Let plug in the formula

P=0.3 m³/s *1050 kg/m³*9.81m/s² *200m

P=618,030 W

Now let calculate the required power input to the pump

Using this formula

Required power input=P/μ

Where,

P represent power=618,030 W

μ represent pump efficiency=74%

Let plug in the formula

Required power input=618,030W/0.74

Required power input=835,175.68W

Therefore the required power input to the pump will be 835,175.68W
