3. (20 points) A pump consuming 10KW of electric power, raises water from a reservoir to a storage tank 16 m above at a rate of 100 L/s. Disregarding any

frictional losses in the pipes and any changes in kinetic energy, determine (a) the overall efficiency of the pump-motor unit and (b) the pressure difference between the inlet and the exit of the pump.
