NEET 2021 Physics Power MCQ Question
Type: MCQ-numerical-Medium-Class 11
Water falls from a height of 60 m at the rate of 15 kg/s to operate a turbine. The losses due to frictional force are 10% of the input energy. How much power is generated by the turbine? (g = 10 m/s²)
A
10.2 kW
B
8.1 kW
C
12.3 kW
D
7.0 kW
Correct Answer
Option B
Detailed Explanation
The power generated is given by P = mgh(¹⁻ loss). Substituting the values, P = 15 × 10 × 60 × 0.9 = 8.1 kW.
