What is the pressure on the discharge side of the pump?

Calculation of Pressure on the Discharge Side

The pressure on the discharge side of the pump is 179 kPa.

Explanation:

The pressure on the discharge side of the pump can be calculated by adding the suction pressure to the pressure differential developed by the pump. In this case, the suction pressure is 124 kPa and the pressure differential is 55 kPa. Adding these values together, we get:

Pressure on the discharge side = suction pressure + pressure differential

Pressure on the discharge side = 124 kPa + 55 kPa

Pressure on the discharge side = 179 kPa

Therefore, the correct answer is Option D. 179 kPa.
