Water from a large tank enters into a pipe and discharges to the atmosphere through a nozzle connected at the other end of the pipe. The tip of the nozzle is located 240 m below the water surface in the reservoir. The jet formed at the tip of the nozzle has a diameter of 100 mm and velocity of 60 m/s. Neglecting minor losses, a) Compute the power produced by the jet in hp b) compute the power lost due to friction in the pipe
