Pump transfers input mechanical energy of an engine, into--
A
pressure energy of a fluid
B
kinetic energy of a fluid
C
Both a and b
D
None of the above
Correct Answer: kinetic energy of a fluid
ANSWER : Both a and b. A pump can transfer the input mechanical energy of an engine into both the kinetic energy and the pressure energy of a fluid. The mechanical energy supplied to the pump is used to create movement and pressure within the fluid, resulting in an increase in both the kinetic energy and the pressure energy of the fluid.
