Question: The turbine shown in Fig. P5.114 develops (100 mathrm{hp}) when the flowrate of water is (20 mathrm{ft}^{3} / mathrm{s}). If all losses are negligible, determine

The turbine shown in Fig. P5.114 develops \(100 \mathrm{hp}\) when the flowrate of water is \(20 \mathrm{ft}^{3} / \mathrm{s}\). If all losses are negligible, determine

(a) the elevation \(h\),

(b) the pressure difference across the turbine, 

(c) the flowrate expected if the turbine were removed.
