Electric power is to be generated by installing a hydraulic turbine generator at a site 120 m below the free surface of a large water reservoir that can supply water at a rate of 2400 kg/s steadily. Determine the power generation potential.

Respuesta :

Answer:

2.82 × 10^6 watt

Explanation:

H = 120 m,

Mass per second = 2400 kg/s

Power = work / time

Power = m g H / t

Power = 2400 × 9.8 × 120 / 1

Power = 2.82 × 10^6 Watt
