Find mechanical power to overcome frictional effects


An 80% efficient pump with a power input of 15 MW is pumping water from a lake to a nearby pool at a rate of 1.6 m3/s through a constant diameter pipe. The surface of the pool is 70 m above the surface of the lake. Determine the mechanical power used to overcome frictional effects in the piping.
