I'm currently working on a project, but I'm no engineer or physicist, so I'm limited in my calculations. It would be great if you guys could help me out!
I joined an image to this post to help understand. There are two basins, height = 16 meters, length = 4 meters and width = 3 meters. They are next to each other, and both half-full with water. If there is a kind of motor or machine connecting both basins and located in the bottom that can transfer the water from one basin to the other, how much energy/electricity would the motor/machine use in order to fill one of the basins to the top with the water from the other basin? (so basically fill the top half)
If there's any kind of formula that could help me calculate this, that would help me big time.
Thanks!
