The transmission efficiency between the engine and the pump is 100% efficient. The brake thermal efficiency of the engine is 35%, the calorific value of the fuel is 43 MJ/kg, the cost of fuel is Rs 53.00 per liter and the density of the fuel is 780kg/m3. Estimate the running cost of the fuel for 1000m3 of water lifted.
