Calculate the power drawn from the engine


The specifications for an automobile fuelpump state that it should pump 1 L of gasoline in 40 s with asuction pressure of 150 mm of mercury vacuum and a dischargepressure of 30 kPa. Assuming that the pump efficiency is 60percent, calculate the power drawn from the engine. The suction anddischarge lines are the same size. Elevation changes can beneglected The correct answer is PA=1.25 W andPI=2.08 W. Show work to prove this.
