The discharge through a single-acting reciprocating pump is:
(When Symbols have their usual meanings)
Answer: D
The discharge is \(Q = ALN / 60\).
A single-acting pump delivers one cylinder volume, area A times stroke L, per revolution. At N revolutions per minute that is ALN per minute, and dividing by 60 gives the discharge per second.
\[ Q = \frac{A L N}{60} \]
\(2ALN/60\) is for a double-acting pump, which delivers on both strokes, and the forms without 60 give a per-minute figure.
