Question:

A creek runs through a certain part of a campus where the water is falling about 2.5 m over a distance of just 8 m, and the creek before and after the fall is about 3 m wide. The sustainability club has asked you about the potential of harnessing this energy. It is difficult to measure exactly, but a rough estimate of the flow at this spot is 150 L/min. Determine the wattage that could be generated assuming an overall system efficiency of 60 percent. Sketch the arrangement that would permit this.
