उत्तर
In a hydroelectric power station:
Mass of water (m) 1000 kg.
Height (h) = 100 m.
Time (t) = 1 sec.
Produced potential energy (P.E.) = mgh = 1000 × 10 × 100 JouIe
= 1000000 joule
Electrical energy = 60% of potential energy
`=60/100xx1000000`
= 600000 joule
Power output = Energy × Time
= 600000 × 1 watt
= 600000 watt
=`600000/1000` kilo-watt
= 600 kilo-watt.
