A fountain consists of a large pool of water and a column of waterprojected upward by means of a pump. The column has across-sectional area of 114 cm2at its base and reaches a height of 2.30m.

a)
Compute the flow rate of water as it leaves the pool.
_________ liters/s
b) Find the increase in mechanical energy per unit massΔE/Δm, as water starts from rest inthe pool and then is expelled by the pump.
_________ J/kg
c) Find the power supplied by the pump by computing the increasein mechanical energy per unit time.
____________ W
