Agreed! Very much agreed! I just don't know if whether or not I should neglect the kinetic energy term? I at first figured that I should...because the other terms are usually much larger than the kinetic energy term so that I could in fact just 'forget about it'. But since power is being...
My main question in order to solve this problem is...should kinetic energy be neglected? Ok, so here's the problem question:
Sea water with a density of rho = 1025 (kg/m^3) flows through a pump of 0.21 (m^3/s). The pump inlet is 0.25 (m) in diameter. At the inlet the pressure is -0.15 (m of...
