A 600mm pipeline, 1550m long is to take water from a reservoir at elevation 150m and discharge it through a 150mm nozzleat elevation 25m. The pipeline is to be constructed so that at a point X, 200m from the nozzle, the pipe shall be 3m below the hydraulic gradeline. What would be the elevation of the pipe at X and what horsepowerwill be available in the jet from the nozzle? Assume f = 0.023 and no loss at entrance to pipe. Use device coefficient = 0.95. Please use figure when solving.
