Ariver flows over a waterfall with an elevation difference of 65m. you decide to install a pelton turbine to take advantage of this elevation difference and generate electricity. recall bernouilli's equation between two points connected by a newtonian fluid: (a) you choose to install a 4-inch pipe to carry water down to the turbine. the pipe is straight and has length 80m. estimate the water velocity at the pipe exit before it hits the pelton wheel, ignoring minor losses. hint: here, ht-hm-0. assume a friction factor of f = 0.01 to estimate the major loss il (b) estimate the power produced, in kw, if the pelton turbine has efficiency 88%.
