Problem on head loss

The pump illustrated in the figure adds 20 kW of power to the flowing water. The only vital loss is that which takes place across the filter at the inlet of the pump. Find out the head loss for this filter. Note that the gage pressure upstream of the filter is negative and the jet placed at the pump exit is free. Take α = 1.
