Problem: 500,000 liters per second of water is discharged from a reservoir and falls 30 meters.
Approach: So when we think about energy being released due to change in elevation, we tend to think of the formula for potential energy.
Key step: 500,000 liters per second of water is discharged from a reservoir and falls 30 meters.
Watch out: And we don't know the mass flow rate, but we know the volume flow rate coming down some distance 30 meters.
Result: And that is power energy per unit time.
