Question

water is falling on the blades of a turbine at the rate of 8*10^2 the height of fall is 50m.calculate the power of the given turbine​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Given,

Height of fall, h = 50 m

Acceleration due to gravity, g = 10 m/s2

Mass of water, m = 8 × 102 kg

Time taken, t = 1 min = 60 s

power = mgh/t= 8*10^2*10*50/60

Therefore, the power given to turbine = 6.67 × 10^3W
