Answer:
<u> Power = 9.75 ×10^8</u>
Explanation:
- Power is rate of change of energy.
- Here gravitational energy is transferred to kinetic energy of water at a definite rate.
For one second 650m^3 of water flows out down to 150m oh depth.
So, the energy at a height of 150m is transformed to kinetic energy.
for a second,
650m^3 of water flows down ⇒ (1000kg/m^3 × 650m^3) = 6.5×10^5kg of warer flos down.
The total gravitational potential energy stored in water is
= <u>mass of water × height× gravity</u>
= 6.5 ×10^5 × 150 × 10 = 9.75 ×10^8
As it is transformed in a second it is also equal to <u>Power.</u>
