Determine the theoretical maximum height that a pump could pull water up from a well (i.e. from the vacuum side of the pump). The set-up described is similar to on-farm wells. Assume that atmospheric pressure is exerted on the water at the bottom of the well. Show all calculation steps and assumptions used to solve this problem.
