A pump with an efficiency of 80% is used to draw groundwater from a well for irrigating a flat field of area 108 hectares. The base period and delta for paddy crop on this field are 120 days and 144 cm, respectively. Water application efficiency in the field is 80%. The lowest level of water in the well is 10 m below the ground. The minimum required horse power (h.p.) of the pump is _________. (round off to two decimal places)

(Consider 1 h.p. = 746 W; unit weight of water = 9810 N/m3

Read the following statements relating to flexure of reinforced concrete beams :

I. In over-reinforced sections, the failure strain in concrete reaches earlier than the yield strain in steel.

A post-tensioned concrete member of span 15 m and cross-section of 450 mm $$\times$$ 450 mm is prestressed with three steel tendons, each of cross-sectional area 200 mm2. The tendons are tensioned one after another to a stress of 1500 MPa. All the tendons are straight and located at 125 mm from the bottom of the member. Assume the prestress to be the same in all tendons and the modular ratio to be 6. The average loss of prestress due to elastic deformation of concrete, considering all three tendons is

A
28.32 MPa
B
7.08 MPa
C
14.16 MPa
D
42.48 MPa
