50% Part (a) What is the maximum power output of the generators, in watts? 50% Part (b) The water that powers the generators enters and leaves the system at a low speed (thus we can neglect its change of kinetic energy) and loses 160 m of altitude during the process. What is the water flow required, in cubic meters per second, to produce this power, assuming 71.5 % efficiency? Grade Summary
